Why Canadian Flight Trainers?

Our team of instructors will monitor your course progress on a daily basis from behind the scenes to ensure your learning experience is a positive one. If you find a mistake, we’ll correct it pretty quickly. Other schools don’t do this.

How long should online ground school take?
As long as you want. Our ground school is available to you under three options. For those who anticipate finishing quickly, they may choose to pay $199 every 4 months; the average student can pay $299 for 9 months; and some may choose to do $399 for 12 months. Some students can take one month to finish while others will take a full year due to other commitments such as work and family. It is about your time and dedication. Students are able to extend their ground school time upon request for a small additional fee.
Note that the 4 month option is a recurring subscription which will continue to charge your payment method until cancelled.
How do I prepare for the exam?
Our ground school has a series of assessment tasks that are aligned with our objectives and goals. We treat them as you completing a 21st century aviation notebook which was designed to provide deep learning. Upon completion, we provide you with sample exams based on student feedback. This way, nothing is a surprise when you sit your real exam.
What is a letter of recommendation? Can I get it from you?
To earn a private pilot license in Canada, you must sit and write a government exam known as the PPAER. You will need a letter of recommendation to write the PPAER exam from a flight instructor. Many students choose to ask their primary flight instructor for this letter, but we can also provide this to you if you pass our trial exams with a certain grade.
Is the online ground school free?
While there are other free online ground school resources in Canada, ours is vetted and kept up-to-date in accordance with Transport Canada standards. As the industry changes, so does our approach. So while we’re not free, we’re a really good value.
What is the refund policy of the ground school?
Once you are passed your free trial and your payment method has been charged, there are no refunds on ground school course access. Please see our full Terms and Conditions below for full details.

Daniel and his team at myflighttraining.ca have provided a very useful, convenient and cost-effective training resource for the PPAER exam. Support is excellent also. The final exams are harder than the actual exam, so if you do well on them you can expect to do well on the Transport Canada exam. Highly recommended to anyone who is considering online ground school.

I am so happy to do this course with Canadian Flight Trainers. The course material and the practice exam questions prepared me really well for the TC exam. I felt very confident and passed the PPL exam with very good score.
Thanks to the instructors and staff of Canadian Flight Trainers for their support, who reached out to me for any clarification when I needed them.

I already did ground school and used the Nizus program. This was way better than either of those. Well put together

Lots of patients from online instructors support. Even when I don’t catch on well to what is being clearly shown they never make me feel like I can’t learn this. Always striving to improve their online learning program!
