Testimonials

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.

Passed my exam first try...PPL course is so thorough it teaches theory and knowledge to get though the exam without a problem. I did both...ground school in class and also Pilottraiing.ca....never would have passed with in-person ground school....just wasnt enoung enough without this course. THANK YOU

Body: Hello! I'm a full-time paramedic trying to get my PPL part-time. A few months ago I was in an unorthodox position where I had completed a different ground school and received a letter of recommendation, but I didn't feel confident about my knowledge. Many topics were very confusing to me even after completing their course. I had a poor understanding of almost every concept that was introduced. I felt forced to find answers in books or on YouTube, and other unofficial sources where I couldn't be sure the information was correct or complete. During practice tests, I would receive very low passing grades and I felt like passing the TC exam would come down to a coin toss. I felt discouraged, nervous, and frustrated.

Desperate, I purchased Pilot Training's PPL course as a Hail Mary to try to supplement the information I already had - and it was a lifesaver. Your course is incredibly engaging, thorough, and clear. I wish I had used your program from the start.

I wrote the TC exam yesterday and thanks to your course, I passed with 90% overall! I'm so grateful, and will definitely be using your courses for all future training. Thank you!!!

Just wanted to send a quick note over to say how much more informative and helpful the material is. Within the first few subjects I found information that would have been useful on the TC Exam.

I blew my CPAER exam unfortunately after using hang**r system, as there were a fair few questions that were not covered in their ground school including the duplex radio. I'm nearing the end of my ground school and already feel 100% more prepared and confident than i was before.

I just wrote my PPAER exam today and scored 97% to the surprise of most of the staff at the flight school! I found the instruction, particularly in the video component of the PPL course absolutely fantastic and completely comprehensive. The online format is polished and certainly makes ground school for someone who has a full time job and family commitments etc. very straightforward to manage. I will definitely be coming back for future ground schools as I go on to further training.
