L2 Aviation, an avionics integration, certification and aircraft modification services provider, announced the appointment of Tony Bailey as president and chief operating officer. This transition reflects a long-term leadership strategy designed to strengthen execution, scale operations, and support the company’s continued growth across commercial, business and special mission aviation sectors.
Bailey brings decades of aerospace leadership experience to the role, with a track record of delivering complex, safety-critical programs while building high-performing teams. Over the course of his career, he has led large-scale operations across engineering, manufacturing, certification, and remote services, consistently aligning technical excellence with business performance.
In his new role, Bailey will lead day-to-day operations across all L2 Aviation business units, with full responsibility for operational performance, customer delivery, and execution of the company’s strategic initiatives. He will work closely with the Board of Managers to drive sustainable growth, expand L2’s capabilities, and strengthen its position as a trusted partner to aircraft operators and OEMs worldwide.
“This is not a change in direction. It is an intentional step forward,” said Bailey. “L2 Aviation has built its reputation on solving difficult problems and delivering when it matters most. My focus is simple: protect what makes us strong, improve where we can be better, and position this company to lead in the next phase of aviation connectivity, certification, and integration.”
