Autorenporträt
Tracey Deakin is one of the founders of Le Bas International, an air charter company synonymous with providing excellence to a global clientele. Born in the United Kingdom and educated at Bethany School, Goudhurst, Kent, his enthusiasm for the industry brought him to his first job in aviation at Invicta International in 1976. Shortly after, he attained his pilot's license. With a career spanning nearly fifty years, Tracey's work with Invicta, IAS Cargo Airlines, El Al Israeli Airlines, and Zambia Airways gave him the experience to support interactions with domestic, European, and International air travel. In 1987, Tracey arrived in the United States at the time that air charter and corporate aircraft business began to grow and flourish. He helped launch Alpha Jet, Inc. and the Long Beach Jet Center before co-founding Le Bas International, where he still works with his trademark care and optimism today.
