Hi guys
I will be moving to Winnipeg, MB in a few months and I want to convert my FAA licence to the Canadian one. I am aware I only need to take a written test (plus the medical test and having the FAA verify my licence).
The question I have is if there is a source to study like Gleim´s book to get the FAA licence from the canadian (http://www.gleim.com/aviation/online_co ... k=Overview).
By the way if somebody else is planning on doing this the references are all here (https://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/civilaviation/ ... n-1261.htm). What I am trying to find is a more convenient way to study for the test and learn all the diferences.

Regards!

Anibal

Hey Anibal,

I did exactly that a couple of years ago - just revise what it recommends for the conversion exam on the TC website and you'll be fine.

I'm over in Winnipeg now, it's just starting to get abit warmer :)

Thank you Victor. Where did you take the test? At Air Transport Canada o somewhere else. Are there many flying oportunities there?
I guess after a Winter with -40s anything warmer than -20 feels great!
