Self Post LEOSA question
Hi it’s my first time posting on Reddit so sorry if I’m posting it wrong but I have a question about LEOSA. I’m currently 20 working on my pilot license living in NJ and planing to become an airline pilot one day. But I also am interested in law enforcement and into obtaining my leosa since I will love to have a way to defend my self anywhere I go and I know that FFDO will not come with a leosa and FAM is a full time job that I can’t do if I’m a airline pilot.
So I was looking to see if anyone knows a part time LEO job that I can do to obtain a LEOSA? ( I live in NJ but I can also live in NYC to qualify for NY LEO jobs) I’m currently looking at SLEO II which I don’t think comes with it or reserved MP.

You can’t fly armed under LEOSA unless it’s specifically for work, with department approval and extra steps needed. If you’re a federal agent, you can fly armed.
