Hi All,

I am emigrating to Nova Scotia, Canada in a few months and I am hoping to enroll in flight training. I don't know of any JAA/JAR Flight Schools in Nova Scotia and was wondering if anyone here knows of any?

Many Thanks

If you're emigrating why would you want a JAR school? You need a Canadian licence in Canada.

There are no longer any JAA/JAR schools in Canada

Because if I ever returned to the UK or Europe to fly then I would need a JAA/JAR Licence wouldn't I?

That is correct. There are several schools in the US

Quite true, but in Canada you would need the local licence. You wrote that you were emigrating ie a permanent move. You could always do the Canadian licence, gain experience there, and then if you move back to JAR land convert to a JAR equivalent.

Hats off to Transport Canada for this useful guide:
