Sault College Aviation

Considered one of the best flight schools in Canada, Sault College’s Aviation Technology – Flight program prepares students for an exhilarating career as a professional pilot with positions available around the globe. Graduates of the program who meet qualification criteria established by Transport Canada will have successfully completed the requirements for the Integrated Commercial Pilot License Aeroplane, including the multi-engine instrument rating (CPL(A)IR). This license meets all the requirements for students to be a commercial pilot. Students gain hands-on training with an impressive fleet of aircraft, including eleven Zlin and two Piper Seminole air planes, complemented by three state-of-the-art flight simulators that provide a realistic experience which closely replicates flying in a College airplane. Each aircraft includes advanced radio navigation and real-time aircraft tracking systems.
