Take a drive up towards Buttonville airport, there you will find Toronto Airways.

Where are you in Toronto?

Do you have a car?

There's Greenbank, Holland Landing, Brampton, Burlington, Oshawa, Hamilton.

I did my license many years ago at Greenbank -- a good measure of a flying school is how long it takes to checkout somewhere else when you want to rent a plane -- one hour or less is a good number.

Traffic density when you're going flying is a big factor. I do not run up to Holland Landing weekdays after work, nor would I want to be going to Buttonville then.

If you can't drive for medical reasons, I doubt you can pass a Class 1 aviation medical. If you can't drive for financial reasons, dual costs some $160/hr + 7% GST.

sorry guys...another advice...please??
 
:O Hi everyone,

I have few questions. Just like everyone, I have great desire to fly for major.
Let just say an opportunity (hypnotically speaking) present it self for a job to fly A320 as a F/O and the other job to fly twin as PIC.

As I mention my dreams, is to for an airline In Oz or anywhere, What would be the best decision? Which one would you go for?

Sam…:O

Jet time, the employer will upgrade you when required.

A 320 is the way to go.:ok:
