As per Genghis' suggestion, a new thread for flight test training and employment...
Sorry, I've been busy helping with the Shoreham crash thread...
Is it the same in Canada?
Clear Prop,
I'm not the best person to ask, other than to say that I don't think we're all that busy in Canada, other than Bell and Bombardier. There are a few mod centers, but the flight test work for them is not likely full time.I have been told by those in the know that the type of flight testing work I do (GA) is unique in Canada, so there are not many more opportunities there!
Find work which will expose you to the flight test environment, and get you known and appreciated by those who run these operations.
