Academy of Aeronautics

Academy of Aeronautics, also called Collège d'aéronautique, is a flight school in Montreal, Quebec. The site says the school was founded in 1964 by aviation experts. It is certified by Transport Canada and holds a permit from the Quebec ministry of higher education, number 693699. The website is in French and English.

The school offers two routes. One is the college program in professional aircraft piloting, coded EWA.19. The other is a modular route. The modular courses include the private pilot licence, the commercial pilot licence, the night rating, the multi-engine rating, the instrument rating and the flight instructor rating. The site says students can move from a first flight to the licences needed for a professional career.

The training fleet is listed in detail. It has five Cessna 172N aircraft and three Cessna 152 aircraft. It also has a Piper PA-28-140 Cherokee, a Piper PA-28-181 Archer II and a twin-engine Piper PA-34-200 Seneca I. The site gives speeds, ranges and engine data for each type.

Joining takes four steps: ask for information, apply, enroll and begin ground school and flight training. The site says eligible students can get financial aid from the Quebec government. It says its graduates fly for Air Canada, Jazz and Porter.
