We also conduct study skills seminars and Bell 206 ground training. All ground training is conducted using a wide variety of instructional methods, including traditional lectures, multimedia presentations, videos, and computer-based training. The Bell 206 ground school is taught by our CFI and our Director of Maintenance, an experienced engineer.
Ground school is conducted full-time for 2 weeks, a minimum of once per calendar year. School hours are 0800 to 1700, Monday to Friday. During these hours students also have access to the study area, our reference library, audio-visual material, and a ground school instructor.
Students may take the Transport Canada written examination after a minimum of 50% of their flight training is completed. The Chief Flight Instructor will provide his written recommendation when he is satisfied that the student is adequately prepared to pass the exam.
