Thank You

Thank You for your reply driver . I met the CFI of Rockcliffe Flying Club here in Ottawa .
Interesting as he did suggest the same , that i go ahead and get a Masters in Avionics Engineering at the same time get my licenses .
As far as getting employment in the aviation industry goes , i was suggested to talk to some person at Canadian Aviation Maintenance Council regarding the AME Licence . He says to make the candidature impressive , if i can have a AME license that would give me a chance to be employed in the industry . I could always look at this as a back up option too .
AS of now , i plan on going for Masters which would take care of my PEngg license for the engineering side , AME for getting into the industry hopefully .
Now i wanted to know , if i start working as an apprentice would i still be able to deduce my training costs in taxes . As i am sure it makes more sense for an AME to get a CPL than any one else .
Would you mind suggesting how i go about that . Can i PM you on that .
I am glad you have been in the same shoes yourself . Personally i feel both Mc Gill and Concordia are good . I would also like to talk to you about that .
Would wait for your reply .
