Try Pro-IFR at Boundary Bay BC. Flying here is GREAT.

Flying here is very reasonable, mostly much less regulated (though just a little tight around Vancouver itself)

Licence is now 40 hrs (I think) most take between 40 and 50. Pstar exam (rules and regs) is a pain with 90% pass but do-able and you can download CARs online and do practice exams, ( I think they are at "Bomber Joes" Other exams are regular stuff with, I think 50 or 60% pass.

Why does government think the "rules' are more imortant than being able to fly safely?

Everything you need to know for other exams is in "From the ground up" book available from clubs

If you come to Vancouver come up to Pemberton, post here you are coming.
