Hi vrsa,
I am just trying to sort out a trip to Vancouver in June. I am hoping to check out some flying schools and do at least some flying too. The trip will be a bit of a 'reccie' with the idea of going back later to do some hour building and float training. (I am studying for the JAA ATPL).
We should keep in touch, then we can exchange information
Also, does anybody have any advice for Europeans looking for bush flying employment in Canada? I know it's not easy (like all pilot jobs right now!) I don't even have a work permit yet......
Thanks,
Tim

Tim_Q: It's the same as everywhere else - work hard, keep your eyes open and your mouth shut, network, don't make too many stupid mistakes, generally be a good guy to get along with. If you were serious about doing the bush/floats thing, then do as much of your hour-building on floats, as it seems that 50-100 hrs (or more) are the minimums for getting an entry-level float job these days. Good Luck.

Float training
hello sunny72,
just wondering if you've trained with Air Hart (or own it?!!?) and if you think they'd be the best. Am also European and hoping to get work in Canada after a wee bit of training...
Any tips on where's best for getting work without any previous contacts?
Cheers now
