Private Pilot License (PPL)

The Private Pilot License (PPL) is the key to all the other programs available. This means that without the PPL, students cannot proceed to other programs such as Night Rating, Commercial Pilot License, Multi-Engine Rating, or Instrument Rating.

The Private Pilot License is intended for those wishing to fly for pleasure, which means a PPL holder can not work as a pilot. The holder can fly any aircraft for which they have received training and carry passengers. 

This program does not require approval by the Private Training Institutions Branch (PTIB) of the Ministry of Advanced Education and Skills Training. As such, PTIB did not review this program.
