If you fly helicopters, give me a call, even if I am in Manitoba...

One of the best places i know of is Calgary flight training centre, they usually give you the opportunity to work with them when you are done.

Most flight schools do a checkride and then have you teach them something random. Then they guarantee you a job when you finish your instructor rating. That's how they get your business, by guaranteeing you a job.

If a student ever gets bored, take them some miles out towards Pincher Creek.
