The minimum requirements for a Commercial Licence are 100 hours of pilot in command time and 200 hours total flight time.  Students will generally have accumulated approximately 55 hours total flight time (40 hours dual and 15 hours solo) in the completion of their private course.  The commercial course requires an additional 65 hours of flight instruction ( 35 hours dual and 30 hours solo) beyond the issue of the PPL.  The remainder of the required flight time can be made up as either dual or solo time as required.  The Transport Canada written examination must be completed prior to the flight test.  The groundschool is 80 hours.

Note:  The above breakdown of costs is based on the average commercial student pilot who has finished his Private licence in the average time, has purchased a Voting Membership in the Club and is being trained in a Cessna 152.  Buildup time required is dependent on hours currently held.  The student may wish to purchase additional books to prepare for the written examination which may add $200 to costs.  Fuel surcharges will apply where the price of fuel exceeds the base rate.
