Is it slower in your school?

Hey everyone, Just looking to get other instructors feedback. It feels like I’ve done a lot less hours in September than I did last year same month for a similar weather, and generally speaking things are slower at the school/airport (that’s in BC). How do you find it? Seems like it was crazy after ...

Re: Aerocourse and NIZUS ATPL

Your bases should be more than covered.

I did everything using just nizus by really reading through the explanation and referencing to TC stuff when needed and it went really well. I also had a few questions along the way and their customer service was great, which nowadays ….

AIRAF class 4 written test feedback

Hi everyone! Just wrote the AIRAF yesterday and wanted to give some feedback here. https://i.ibb.co/dBJV4h2/IMG-3505.jpg I only used nizus for my practice exams and it was all I needed. Most of the exam's questions were in their database (not necessarily worded the same but the topic was covered). I...

Re: Recent IATRA exam?

Just want to get some opinions to make sure it's worth the $200 investment haha. I also didn’t want to pay too much and wrote mine using only nizus and did great. I think it was only 30 bucks or something like that. I just posted on another IATRA thread (IATRA 2019 it’s called), find this one becau...

Re: TCCA to FAA ccp exam

I did mine a few years back now (about 5 years) but used Dauntless back then and had a lot of my questions at the exam be almost verbatim what I practiced. It really focused on the differences in signage/rules/charts use in the two countries. The hardest of the whole process was dealing with the FAA...

The Chief pilot you might be doing a ride with one day for a job, will judge you for this, why not practice being a smooth pilot now!
Definitely can agree with that part. And it applies to the general handling of the aircraft altogether.

Glider TC exam (navigation)

Hi everyone, I am trying to get an idea of what to expect of the NAV section of the glider TC exam. Surely when it comes to gliders there has to be differences (although the study guide is very similar to the airplane one), just wondering if TC actually asks to plot a nav with no engine, or if they ...

Re: Nizus - ATPL Feedback

I have used nizus for my SARON and passed the exam at Transport. I've found it to be a great tool and very complete. I am currently studying for the SAMRA, will update after the exam.

Good luck in your studies :)

Re: IFR written test practice exams

Hey there!

A little feedback. IFR is done and passed :)

I was really happy using nizus, I don't know about the instructor one but the english of the IFR exams was good, really similar to TC.

I've seen on their facebook they are giving 30% discount at the moment. Worth to give a try guys.

There are flight schools in France. They are more expensive than in Canada. There is less job in France than in Canada and above all, I did all my training in Canada, it will be expensive to do all my conversions.
