Re: YVR IFR course offers?

That’s cool that you found so many people on your course! I never found anybody lol. On the fic course we didn’t have to do the whole ita but we did get a whole other weather online course to do prior to our start date. It is definately time consuming!

Can't give away too much info but like any interview make sure you know stuff about the company.....beyond just ifr, vfr, and fss. Other than that it's a lot like the phone interview. You guys will do great!
