Why Canadian Flight Trainers?

Our ground school was made in the 21st century and has excellent learning capabilities. Other ground schools in Canada simply provide lectures and let you go at it yourself. 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.

Online Flight Training

Our ground training is done online, but you still have to learn how to fly an airplane, in an airplane. To find a flight school, visit Transport Canada’s website here.

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.

    I have quite enjoyed the PPL Ground School Course, and I plan to continue to use Canadian Flight Trainers for other parts of my training as well.

  2. A.J, – Calgary AB (verified owner)

    I feel like I learned a lot throughout this course. I feel that after I review all thee quizzes and try the practice exams, I will be ready for the PPAER. Although some of the presentations were very long, it was manageable to do them. I would’ve maybe just prefered if some of the 60 page slideshows were split in half just to ease the amount of information you were receiving all at once. other than that i think it was a good course! Thank you (:

  3. B.F. – Calgary AB (verified owner)

    I loved the course! I found it very helpful and well done.

  4. H.J. (verified owner)

    I found the Canadian flight trainers ground school to be well put together and easy to digest. I would recommend to anyone doing their ppl.

  5. Samuel Donato (verified owner)

    The entire course is very well designed, with clear and practical real-world examples. Daniel is clearly passionate about teaching, and it shows in the quality of the instruction.
    Thank you very much for everything!

  6. A.P. – British Columbia (verified owner)

    Overall you guys are great, something that could help with my learning is having more practice tests. I just like to practice, a lot. either than that everything has been good!

  7. AR. – Toronto, ON (verified owner)

    I had an amazing experience learning with CFT. The instructor, Daniel had made the learning fun with his amazing sense of humor. There were some topics that were overwhelming but I made it through. I would definitely recommend CFT to anyone who wants to start their flying journey. I hope to come back to obtain CPL once I get the PPL. Thanks for all the help and guidance.

    Honestly, this entire course has been really good. Daniel was a major help when I required guidance. All the lessons have been straight forward and easy to understand.

  9. Graeme Clark – Calgary AB (verified owner)

    I honestly believe that this is the best course I’ve ever taken. Better than all of the 30 plus courses I took in business school. The format of watching a video and then doing a quiz is very smart and incredibly helpful. It’s a tremendous amount of information and you guys made it manageable. I particularly enjoyed Daniel’s sense of humour. Thankyou CFT!

  10. S.P. (verified owner)

    The ground school course has made it possible for me to learn all this material during a very busy time of life (work, family, church, etc…) I was able to study at my own pace and that was a huge help for me! I particularly enjoyed Daniel’s sense of humour.

  11. N.W. (verified owner)

    I’ve had a sense of eureka during these final exams; a lot of the concepts have clicked for me, and it’s all thanks to the very in-depth explanations you guys give in the video. There isn’t anything I’d change about the course content besides a few small typos I noticed on the exams.

  12. J.B. (verified owner)

    The course was very well structured with the flexibility of video presentations and slideshow formats providing both visual and textual learning. I enjoyed the more challenging nature of the quizzes/tests ultimately bringing you as close as possible to the real examinations.

  13. M.P. – Calgary AB (verified owner)

    I am very happy with everything about the course especially how organized the format is. The presentations are entertaining and I am looking forward to making progress with my commercial pilot training.

  15. postma (verified owner)

    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.

  16. Ashutosh Dutta (verified owner)

    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.

  17. Martin Lee (verified owner)

    Videos made understanding the topics easy. Enjoyed the layout of course. Practice exams were nearly identical to the real thing.

  18. Stephen Charlton (verified owner)

    Thanks to Matt for the extra support during the course. Passed the exam with a 90% yesterday.

  19. Justin Peterson (verified owner)

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

  20. Clarence Bergen (verified owner)

    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!

  21. Brandon Wilson (verified owner)

    The exams were almost identical to the Transport Canada exams. Videos were great and not boring

  22. Kethy Morawski (verified owner)

    Very thorough but not too much. Very happy the instructors help me when I ask for it.

  23. Lawrence (verified owner)

    Really enjoyable course. Loved the stories from all of the instructors.
