Pilot Training Canada

pilot training canada

Pilot training Canada, this beautiful land is a country often overlooked when people are looking at pilot training. Remembered for it’s poor weather and it’s penchant for an arctic like winter. This in some respects is true, but let’s not forget that Canada has a large and booming aviation industry and offers some unique training experiences and indeed living experiences at the same time.

A country with many airports and a huge amount of space, with the freedom to fly like in the USA but with more air space and a regulation system closer aligned with the European authorities than the FAA.

The exchange rate of the Canadian Dollar (known as the toony to the locals) is normally very favourable. Cost of living is also very good depending on where you live.

With their history of bush aviation, mountain flying around the Canadian Rockies and experience in the extreme northern weather they have passed a lot of very practical experience down and their training and examination process tends to focus on these skills. This means that Canadian trained pilots tend to have very good practical ‘stick and rudder’ skills while giving the modern style of training that the modern flight deck environment demands.

The large amounts of training organisations also means that there is a large selection of Canadian flight schools to choose from with opportunities in the Pacific west coast region all the way across to the cosmopoilitan provinces in the east.

With dual rates as favourable as around $160 Canadian Dollars per hour with discounts available for block booked hours, it is easy to see how the savings can be made.

If you already hold a European PPL, transfer of this PPL to get into hour building soon after your arrival does not take long and a full time dedication to your studies can see completion of all the qualifications in as little as 7 to 8 months.
