These messages were posted at Leonard's online funerary guestbook: September 15, 2004 Leonard, you are one of the most interesting people (characters) I have ever known, worked with and flown with. You were an excellent pilot and without doubt, one of the luckiest persons in the aviation game. You taught me much about flying and getting along with people. Your great sense of humor and your practical thinking made it a pleasure working with you. Many people as well as I am glad that we could share this earth with you. God speed and tailwinds. -H. A. "Frosty" Frost (Camdenton, MO ) September 16, 2004 With deepest sympathy to the family of Captain Leonard Pratt. I knew him for many years with Central and Frontier Airlines and greatly respected his professionalism. -Kenneth Stewart (Fayetteville, AR ) September 16, 2004 I'm sure all the folks who worked at Central Airlines and Frontier Airlines join me in extending our heartfelt condolences to Leonard's family. I met him in 1964 when we both worked for Central. He was one of the best pilots around and was famous for being able to make up lost time when a flight was running late. -Jake Lamkins (West Fork, AR) To the family and friends; my heartfelt condolances. Leonard, we never flew together but my contact with you while we were at FAL was interesting and enjoyable to say the least. What a guy and what a career!! Fly west my friend with fair skys and tail winds. -Billy Watkins (Brighton, CO )
