Frequently Asked Questions

What is a private pilot licence?

A private pilot licence (PPL) in Canada allows individuals to fly as pilot-in-command of an aircraft for non-commercial purposes. It is a significant step in the aviation journey, providing foundational skills and knowledge required for flying. It is the first official step toward becoming a licenced pilot and lays the foundation for more advanced training like the Commercial Pilot Licence (CPL).

How can I start my private pilot licence training?

You can begin your PPL training by enrolling in a Transport Canada-approved ground school and booking flight lessons at a local flight school. Online ground school options offer flexible learning, allowing you to start training anytime, anywhere. We recommend starting with an introductory flight to make sure it’s the right fit.

What is included in the flight training for a private pilot licence?

PPL training includes both ground school and in-flight instruction. Ground school covers aviation theory, air law, navigation, meteorology, and human factors. Flight training includes dual instruction, solo flying, emergency procedures, and cross-country navigation with a certified flight instructor.

Do I need a medical certificate to obtain a private pilot licence?

Yes, obtaining a medical certificate is a prerequisite for a private pilot licence in Canada. You must pass a medical examination conducted by an approved aviation medical examiner to ensure you meet the health standards required for flying. A medical certificate is required before you can fly solo or be issued a Student Pilot Permit or Private Pilot Licence.

Can I become a commercial pilot later?

Absolutely. The Private Pilot Licence is the first step toward becoming a professional pilot. After your PPL, you can pursue additional ratings and eventually complete your Commercial Pilot Licence (CPL) training.

What are the benefits of an online PPL ground school?

An online PPL ground school provides flexibility and convenience, allowing you to study at your own pace. It often includes interactive modules, quizzes, and access to instructors, making it easier to grasp complex aviation concepts while preparing for the written examination.

How long does it take to complete the private pilot licence training?

The duration of private pilot licence training varies based on individual commitment and weather conditions. On average, it can take anywhere from a few months to a year to complete all flight training and successfully pass the required examinations.

Can I use my private pilot licence for commercial flying?

No. A private pilot licence is for recreational and personal use only. To fly commercially (for compensation or hire), you must obtain a Commercial Pilot Licence (CPL), which includes more advanced training and exams.

What should I do if I want to pursue further training after my private pilot licence?

After earning your private pilot licence, you can pursue additional ratings such as Night Rating, Instrument Rating (IFR), or Multi-Engine Rating. These open up more flying opportunities and are essential if you plan to continue toward a CPL or become a flight instructor.
