How long did it take you guys to study for the CPL Written from start to finish? Resources used?

Hello, although we’re probably a while away from recalls and hiring, I was just wondering how much Jazz cares about degrees? I’m about to graduate from one of the Jazz App colleges here in Ontario, about 300 total time, but no degree. Just a diploma from the college. I know I probably won’t find a p...

Hi all, There seems to be some confusion going around at my flight school, some instructors are saying you can currently do the CPL Flight Test before the Written and some are saying you can't (like usual). Others are arguing about it. I've heard there's an exemption on Transport Canada's Website bu...

Hi all, I'm planning on starting the Harv's Air CPL ground school soon. Have lots of study time around now. What were your methods of using Harv's Air going from beginning to ready for writing the CPAER? Read all the slides over and over until you get it? Read and take notes on them, and then review...

Hey all, I will be entering the Conestoga College Fast Track program this coming September, I know it is pretty late to be asking this but at this point I'm just trying to see how much info I can get before entering (I'm not trying to decide where to go as I've already accepted my offer and we are n...

Hello all, I would like to know what counts as a warm/cold engine in the 172P/R/S. As I was looking through the POH, I didn't see any specific description of a warm or cold engine (oil temperature for warm and cold). Not sure if I just missed it or it really isn't there. All I saw in the engine star...

Hey all, Looking around at lots of social media accounts of american pilots that do photography and videos during flight, a lot of them have a sentence in their biographies that usually goes something along the lines of "All photographs are taken under the FAA Act blah blah blah etc. etc." Do we as ...

I've done several out of CNC3, although it's been a few years. It's really quite easy. Leave the circuit, and request flight following from the appropriate centre freq. Tell them you're headed for a city tour. They'll likely give you a heading and altitude to fly that'll keep you clear of any troub...

Flying in a Piper Cub with an overcast layer at 800ft...Wow.

Hey all, So I got licensed fairly recently with a PPL back in August, and I have a question regarding my logbook. Side note, still haven't gotten my Aviation Booklet yet, but I heard you usually get them near 90 days after issue of tempo license. When I take passengers up into the circuit/or go solo...

Air Canada currently won't hire without a degree or aviation diploma. That may change, or may not even matter to you. I have heard that Confed college is less disorganized. Because I was wondering if the Algonquin College program provides an “Aviation Management” diploma, or a “General Arts and Sci...

Does Jazz/any of the other Express regionals count in this as well?

So I have three options so far when it comes for colleges, Sault, Confederation, and Algonquin. There’s others, but I would like to go with one of these three. Certain current Sault students are telling me that it’s no longer worth it. Students are flying on average of once a month, some are two yea...

Hey guys, Just wondering what the wait time is usually like for getting your Aviation Document Booklet? I just finished my PPL training and got my temporary license and was told up to 90 days, but it really seems like it varies quite a bit between people for whatever reason. I'm in the Toronto area,...

Hey all, I’ve been looking into the Brampton Flight College 1 Year Program more and am thinking about applying for the 2019 intake once I finish High School. What are the pros and cons of this program? To be completely honest, it seems like people from Sault, Seneca, etc. get into the higher regiona...

I'd recommend BFC College. I am currently doing my PPL from the BFC (non-college program) and the flight school is great in my opinion. I have several buddies who are currently in the college program, and I have buddies who graduated from it a while ago. The ones currently in it say that they love i...

What would be the best way to fix a weight and balance issue on a C152? You can't move the passenger from the front to the back, or vice versa(which is what everyone is telling me) because there simply isn't a back seat. I have been told I can always say that I don't want to carry a passenger since ...

Now I'm being told that I am allowed to take notes in to the flight test which I can use, is this true? If so, I'm going to type up a little bit for every thing I need to know for the ground portion.

Hey all, I'm having a slight difficulty when practicing Precautionary landings. I have the whole thing down but the runway length part gets to me. I have been using 60 knots GS when timing the length of the runway (example: 30 seconds = 30 x 100 = 3000 foot runway). However, I feel that it's a bit t...

C.W.E. wrote: ↑Sat Apr 14, 2018 4:55 pm A better question is what percentage of PPL flight tests are failures?

Not sure, but I would like to know that as well.

So I just cleared the PPL Written Exam, all I have left now is some cross country time building and the Flight Test. Anybody have any info/tips for the flight test, and are there any books to go through before hand? I just ordered the book called Flight Test Notes, and I will be attending my flight ...

So I meet the requirements for the Flight Management program at Confederation College, as well as a few other colleges. I wanted to know what ratings/licenses they offer in that program, I do know that they offer a PPL, CPL, and instrument, but I didn't see anything about a multi-engine rating on th...

So I just got a Partial Pass for the PPL Written Exam, I got 79% in Meteorology, 82% in General Knowledge, and 55% in both Air Law and Navigation (one more correct question in both and I would've been fine...). I saw it coming, I didn't put nearly as much study time into these two subjects as I did ...
