| The Recreational Pilot Permit (RPP) is the most economical means for someone to enjoy the thrills of flying for receational purposes. If purchasing an aircraft for recreation is in your future, this permit is a quick and easy way to get started. It can also be used as a step to becoming a Private Pilot. A Seaplane Rating may also be added to the RPP. Most candidates for the RPP will follow a schedule that best suits their own needs. Students may choose which single-engine aircraft to train on, though most will use the Cessna 152. Ground School is not required, but students may follow a supervised self-study program or attend a Private Pilot Ground School. The hours listed below reflect the Transport Canada minimums. Additional hours may be required to meet prescribed standards. |
