Training - Commercial Pilot Ground School

Training – Commercial Pilot Ground School

Ground school is a mandatory requirement for a Commercial Pilot Licence.

The Pacific Flying Club’s CPL Ground School consists of 80 hours on instruction. Pacific Flying Club members have a choice of attending in person or online… or a combination of both. Topics covered include theory of flight, flight instruments, airframes and engines, flight operations, air law, pilot decision-making, meteorology, and navigation.

Once ground school is completed, students will write a practice exam in order to obtain a Letter of Recommendation to write the Transport Canada exam.
To qualify to write the CPL Transport Canada written exam, candidates must hold a PPL, a valid Category 1 medical, a minimum of 100 hours total flying time, completed ground school, and have a letter of recommendation from the school.
