50 Hour Bush Pilot Program
Air-Hart Aviation's flight training centre, focussed on floatplane trainingg has developed a unique syllabus to help you towards your goal of being a bush pilot. Our 50 Hour Bush Pilot course is our most popular program, and the best way to prepare for starting out as a bush pilot. Our 50 hour bush course, includes 25 dual hours and 25 hours solo. And we are one of the only floatplane training operators that provide solo hours. We believe this is an important component in ensuring you are prepared for an exciting career as a bush pilot. As a Canadian company, we realize the need for competent 'bush pilots' as well as future airlines pilots. The airline industry is always keen to hire competent young pilots. Their hiring practices are cyclical and it is unlikely that all commercial pilots will have the opportunity to move into the right-hand seat of an airline partner. Charter companies are often an option, and because of their varied assignments, they appreciate a more well-rounded background. Some pilots wish to experience the thrill of bush flying and may wish to stay within this branch of aviation.
