Resources

Below are website links that Maple Wings Flight Centre believes may be helpful for our students and pilots in general. These resources include government documents related to flight training, airspace, weather, and communications, intended for study purposes. We've also included links to information from the Ontario Career Colleges, relevant to our students, along with general financial resources.

Transport Canada

Transport Canada is responsible for transportation policies and programs to promote safe, secure, efficient and environmentally responsible transportation. Transport Canada is the governing body for everything aviation and the operations within including pilot and personnel licencing, aircraft and airport operations, drones, incident reporting, air travel and airworthiness. Below are useful website links to current regulations and publications issued by Transport Canada that are not only useful for study, but also for review by current pilots.

Nav Canada

Nav Canada is responsible for providing a wide range of air navigation services, including air traffic control, flight information, weather briefings, and airport advisory services. The organization oversees 18 million square kilometers of Canadian airspace, as well as the North Atlantic oceanic airspace under Canadian jurisdiction.

Their services include aeronautical communications, information and radio navigation, aviation weather reporting, emergency assistance, and the maintenance of safe, efficient air traffic operations. NAV CANADA also publishes a variety of free resources to help pilots familiarize themselves with proper phraseology and procedures.

Pilots can access online weather briefing tools essential for safe flight planning, both within local airport areas and across broader airspace. Additionally, NAV CANADA is responsible for the creation and maintenance of all navigational charts used in both Visual Flight Rules (VFR) and Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) operations.

Ontario Career Colleges (OCC)

In the context of Ontario Career Colleges (OCC), Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) are standardized metrics used to evaluate institutional performance and student success, helping students, educators, and policymakers make informed decisions about career education. 

Here's a breakdown of what Ontario Career College KPIs are:

  • Standardized Metrics:  KPIs are specific, measurable, and quantifiable indicators that assess different aspects of career college performance. 
  • Purpose:  They help evaluate institutional performance, student outcomes, and inform policy and decision-making. 
  • Data Source:  The data for KPI reporting comes from surveys completed by students and employers. 

Maple Wings Flight Centre Policies

Below are important links to Maple Wings Flight Centre policies. We strongly recommend reviewing these as they are essential for all students during their training with us.

Financial Resources

Pursuing education can be a rewarding but financially challenging journey for many students. From tuition fees to textbooks, housing, and daily living expenses, the costs can quickly add up. Fortunately, a variety of financial resources are available to help ease this burden. Whether through scholarships, bursaries, grants, student loans, or work-study programs, students have access to support systems designed to make education more affordable and accessible. Understanding these options is the first step toward making informed financial decisions during your academic career.
