YEARS OF COMBINED EXPERIENCE

Vayu Aviation is an institution ran by two of the most talented and competent flight instructors in Western Canada. Both have achieved the highest levels of instructor qualifications and have diverse and interesting backgrounds in Canadian aviation. I cannot recommend them strongly enough.

I had the pleasure of flying the Zenair with Praveen a few days ago. He was friendly and professional and make the checkout process painless and fun. I’m looking forward to my next flight.

I am happy to recommend this flight school as I have flown so many hours when I was doing my PPL/CPL with Praveen! This is a unique school because of its top-notch staff members!! Good luck!

I did my PPL training with Praveen and he was one of my instructors for my CPL as well. A fantastic instructor who keeps your personal goals in mind while making sure you're a strong candidate for exam purposes and an excellent pilot. The next time I need flight instruction, I'll definitely be heading to Vayu Aviation and will refer all friends there too!

I know the owner operators. They're, "Top tier!"
You won't find better.
