I shared my observations of TC’s AIRAT 6 exam yesterday. In this email, I will share my thoughts on your course. I’ve been a pilot for 48 years, a flight instructor for 45 of those. I’m currently renewing my Class 2 FIR. I’ve also recently retired from the University of BC, where I was Training Lead for a $200 million+ software upgrade project, responsible for the design, development and delivery of comprehensive training for 85,000 faculty, staff and students. I’ve seen a lot of training content! I can honestly say your course is exemplary, a benchmark example of online training. Although you don’t use AI elements, you have raised “traditional” delivery (real person, PowerPoint presentations and whiteboard) to a very high level. Course design is excellent, offering detailed coverage of all necessary areas. Your inclusion of video sequences for the air exercises adds value, even for experienced instructors. Aaron is a master at the craft of “classroom” presentation. He is as personable as he is knowledgeable, and his mastery of the art of “Prairie style” humor (yes, it’s a thing!) perfectly leavens the lessons. I never tire of his screen presence! Module length is excellent, with even the 60+ minute presentations being manageable, due equally to polished design and Aaron’s presentation skills. Quiz structure is perfectly balanced with the material and the ability to re-take a quiz, combined with the embedded links to the material explaining the correct answers make the quizzes equally valuable for self-evaluation and study. The practice exams covered well the material examined in the AIRAT I just wrote, and the ability to earn a certificate for a pass mark made even this old Pelican smile. The learning factor of Effect at its finest! I haven’t worked through all the flight instruction tips yet but they are a nice bonus, and a real gift to new instructors. Thanks for including them. The course price is very fair, representing an incredible value, considering the breadth and quantity of the material included. I have already recommended pilottraining.ca to several students. Keep up the excellent work! Also, please pass my thanks to Aaron for using his exemplary presentation skills to make sometimes tedious information (CARs, anyone?) interesting. I’ve pointed several of our Class 4s at his videos as an example of how it’s done.

What students say
Instructor online course Hello After hundreds of hrs and studying everyday I am pleased to announce that I passed the AIRAT exam with 88%. This course is the best dollar value their is at $170.00 and I would highly recommend it to everyone. After retirement and 45 years in airline aviation I decided to renew my instructors Class 2 and wow did I need to review tons of material that I had forgotten. The second part of the course on Air Exercises that covers the 30 required in the Flight Instructor guide is extremely helpful and saves you a lot of money because it gives you the knowledge to practice before you go with your Class 1 instructor. I am presently working on my air work and PGI’s and hope to do the flight test in the next few months.
