Southern Interior Flight Centre (SIFC) is a training unit with a focus on training pilots who are pursuing a career in aviation as a pilot. Their partnership with Okanagan College in offering integrated flight training with an aviation diploma forms the core of their business. The school is recognized by airlines and commercial operators and we have operational experience with SIFC in this area. The school offers a professional pathway for those pursuing a piloting career and, in our experience, to date have been a reliable provider of training services. We know a number of individuals who have received flight training towards acquiring private licenses and they have spoken favorably of their experience with SIFC.
Air Hart is a training unit on field (YLW) that is growing their flight training offerings to include all required elements for private and commercial pilot licensing requirements. Air Hart is to our knowledge one of the few schools that offer float plane training and certification. Our Club’s interactions with Air Hart are positive and we would recommend for those seeking licensing but do not require an aviation diploma.
