The candidate must hold a Commercial Pilot License (this is an EFC requirement for entry in the program and is not a Transport Canada requirement), 50 hours of cross country Pilot in Command (PIC) time and have successfully completed the INRAT written exam. To be considered for an exemption of requiring a CPL please contact the CFI at [email protected] with your total flight time and flying experience.

Training is at the student’s pace and convenience. The course will take 2-3 weeks if full time and 2 months if part-time (3-2 lessons a week.), weather and aircraft dependant.
