Ground School

Ottawa Aviation Services offers a full set of aviation ground training. The following courses are required by Transport Canada and should attend in parallel with your flight training you may be contemplating or currently taking.

Why is ground school important?

  • This forms the foundation of all your future flying experiences.

  • It translates theory into clear and meaningful concepts that you can use!

  • It covers more than just the knowledge required to pass the tests.

  • It's an excellent value: group instruction is more efficient than one-on-one instruction.

  • It provides you support while you are learning. Other students are a support system to keep you motivated and eager to learn more.

  • If you chose an airline career, ground school is standard procedure — you'll have an advantage by utilizing formal ground training early in your career.

     

Course Benefits:

  • Transport Canada licensing & ratings require that you take both a written and a practical (checkride) exam. By taking a formal ground school, you will be prepared to successfully pass the written and oral examinations.

  • Excellent Value: Group training is much cheaper than paying for 40 hours of personal ground instruction.

  • Guaranteed: Former attendees may return and attend any or all of the sessions of future ground schools FREE.
