Learn to Fly
At the Ottawa Flying Club we offer a wide range of flight training options. Whether you want to fly for fun or are interested in a professional career, our friendly staff will be with you every step of the way.
Located at Ottawa MacDonald Cartier International Airport, the Ottawa Flying Club offers a complete flight training experience. Our students have the benefit of flying in both an Air Traffic Control environment and at local smaller airports only minutes away. This gives our students the confidence of being able to handle a variety of situations safely and effectively.
For advanced flight training, the active Air Traffic Control environment provides great facilities for learning IFR procedures. Flight training at the Ottawa Flying Club provides the confidence to fly in all types of airspace, enabling you to take your skills across Canada with confidence.
