Aircraft Hire in Niagara region

[wheelyman]

I am a UK PPL, visiting Niagara region in July. Can anyone recommend somewhere to hire an aircraft. I may even fly up to Picton ON to visit some friends

I live in Niagara Falls Ontario. You can try The St. Catharines Flying Club. I know they rent out Cessna's. If you are looking for a helicopter tour over th falls you can check out Niagara Helicopters Ltd. The links are below.

Thanks, that sounds good,

What would the flying time to Picton be? Difficult to judge distance on Google map!!!

Looks like if I fly direct I would cross he US border for a while, would this make a difference?

Is there a navaid at Picton - not many features on lake Ontario for VFR nav I guess??

Yes! I'm sure NAT will explain why you don't want to do that.
