The following rate table is effective January 2007 (Canadian Dollars).
Lessons
are broken down into three costs: plane rental fee, instructor
fee, and fuel charges (born at our cost). While the plane rental
and instructor fees are fixed costs the fuel costs vary according
the oil market. This makes it difficult to give an exact price
for a per lesson cost. Additionally, each student will need a
varied amount of training in the plane, so again an exact price
is difficult. However, based on averages the following estimates
are reasonable.
For additional information on each of the flight
courses or on the groundschools, please consult the Licenses and
Groundschool areas of our website.
Instructor rating information is provided for
informational purposes only. We do not offer instructor rating
training to the public generally at this time. Instructor rating
training will be considered on a case by case basis only.
