While it won't do anything to make people speak english on the radio, a new requirement to get any license in Canada will be an English test. This is a new ICAO requirement that TC expects to bring in around 2007 (last I heard).

Lots of stuff I would expect a private pilot to know: ie where is class B airspace located, what is the definition of a high performance a/c. No Part 7 questions at all. CP, PNR, C of G as % of MAC are there. Some radio aid questions. ISA aloft. SPROG, high level wx (jetstream, turbulance) If you ha...

The executive board will be elected soon, in the meantime the money is being held by the same person who runs AvCanada and at this time is going toward ru...
