TC Office Exam Wait Times
Got an email from our inspector a few days ago for our FTU. The Edmonton office is booking exams right after Canada Day. Told my CPL students to call and book. The voicemail box was full so they had to email. We now heard that the backlog in the Edmonton area for exams is about 100 people. So my CPL guys are booking mid July for exams. Just wondering how wait times are across Canada at other TC offices if anyone knows?
Re: TC Office Exam Wait Times
For what it's worth, that seems like a fairly reasonable wait time - at this point.
I'm sure it'll end up growing markedly, as more people realize the exam centres are opening up; in addition to the fact that TC is going to probably have limited availabilities every day, etc., to comply with Health Canada guidelines.

Toronto office is trying to use the auditorium in the 4900 building to sit multiple, many exams at once. If a flight school has the space to have 10 or more students write any exam at a time, they will send an invigilator to the flight school. Toronto is trying to get up to 100 per week as per my phone call with the office.

I heard they were still closed until Parliament goes back to work in the fall, just some inspectors working from home. Maybe I should call Hamilton, I was booked to write before this started, they canceled my exam because of COVID-19. They did say they would call me as soon as they opened, not sure why they wouldn't call if they are opening.gustind wrote: ↑Sat Jun 13, 2020 6:42 pm Toronto office is trying to use the auditorium in the 4900 building to sit multiple, many exams at once.

Re: TC Office Exam Wait Times
Does anyone have any info regarding the wait time at the Toronto TC office? Is the building closed again due to the new province wide lockdown in Ontario? Thanks in advance!

Received this 16 Feb from Toronto office.
“If you are able to write your exam sometime in the month of March please advise (we have availability as early as March 8th for the CPAER), otherwise you will be contacted at a later date when April bookings begin”
Still waiting to hear back about April bookings
Called Hamilton office a couple of weeks ago, they have a waiting list of 200, writing 9 per week. Said only about half on the list are writing so Hamilton looks about ten week wait.
Toronto was pretty short notice, first time they contacted me it was an option to write in two weeks, too short notice for me.

Re: TC Office Exam Wait Times
Recently called the Edmonton and Saskatoon office.
Edmonton: Join the wait-list (Been on it for over a month no response)

Really hoping to get my A's completed this summer

About 6 weeks for me in the Calgary office.
Re: TC Office Exam Wait Times
With the back log in exams, do you guys anticipate they will extend the current exemption for doing the CPL Flight Test before the Written? "NCR-128-2020" for reference.
Re: TC Office Exam Wait Times
At this point I can't see how they don't exstend it.

Re: TC Office Exam Wait Times
For Vancouver wait times seem to be about a month or just over to write exams. If you need an inspector for a Flight Instructor ride, the wait time is currently 1.5 months pushing 2 months.
Re: TC Office Exam Wait Times
As per COPA in email dated a week ago:
"CPL WRITTEN EXAMS – Written CPL exams are now being invigilated at Brampton Flying Club (CNC3), Kitchener-Waterloo (CYKF), Harv’s Air Service at St. Andrews, MB (CYAV), and Steinbach, MB (CKK7). Chinook Helicopters, Abbotsford, BC, (CYXX), Moncton Flight College (CYQM), Air Richelieu (CYHU), and Super T Aviation, Medicine Hat, AB (CYXH) will soon be added to this list. Many of these schools are also supervising written PPL exams. "
Hope this helps!
Re: TC Office Exam Wait Times
If Super T were to start doing CPL exams down there would you still just email the PNR email or call Super T directly? Id probably send at least 4 guys down to YXH to write if that is the case.
Re: TC Office Exam Wait Times
Just for your information TC released the following exemptions for the written exams:

Re: TC Office Exam Wait Times
Anyone knows how long for TC to reply to your email for a date? Emailed them almost 2 weeks ago and I haven’t receive any reply
