Flight Tests
Reference the posting, “setting things straight”, by Citabria7eca on December 22, 2007
A flight college in eastern Canada performed 551 flight tests in the 2007 calendar year. |
Don't forget to consider Winnipeg Aviation!

What's your advice...
Vancuover ProIFR or Winnipeg, Harv's air??? I'm looking for an advice. I have a frind who works at Proifr as FI while i know other person in Winnipeg... I'm afraid to go in winnipeg bacause I know the weather and i dont think to fly during winter season. Thanks a lot! |
I used Harv's Air for hour building back in 2006 (so I can't really comment on PPL etc. - but all European students I talked to seemed satisfied). It is a busy place, but there is still a "family" feel about the place. Harv even arranged to pick me up himself at Winnipeg airport when I arrived!
However, for PPL purposes, I would rather recommend going to St Andrews; controlled airfield, possibility of night flying (so you could do a night qualification along with your PPL), close to Winnipeg International (where you can arrange touch and goes - a bit like dropping by at BHX or EMA in the UK!) and closer to nice airfields like Lac du Bonnet or Gimli. Steinbach can be a bit "provincial". I had no aircraft booking issues with Harvs'Air, and there were no extras to pay. I wouldn't worry about winter weather in Manitoba. It can get very cold indeed, but it's usually clear so perfectly flyable (with great aircraft performance). I have no experience of Pro-IFR (although I understand they have a good reputation). If it's your first time in Canada, then British Columbia might be more attractive than Manitoba... Cheers :cool: |
Pro IFR is a good school, however, the weather in general at the airport sucks.
There's times you'll go through a full week of being fogged in. |
Toronta Airways
Anybody used Toronto Airways before? Any reviews would be helpful. Thx.
