Float Rating in Ottawa Area
I am interested in doing my float rating in the Ottawa area in the next few weeks. Other than Lake Country Airways out of Constance Bay is there anyone else offering float training in the area? Thanks!

Re: Float Rating in Ottawa Area
I know that there are really just three active lakes in the Ottawa area: Constance, Arnprior, and Rockcliffe. Constance Lake is probably the best bet, since I think the other two are mostly in the recreational/commercial ops business. Having said that, my info may be out of date, since I haven't looked at floats in close to two years, so take it with a grain of salt.
If at first you don't succeed, maybe NDB approaches just aren't for you

Contact Tanner Poulin at RFC. He is rated and instructing. He was my check out instructor and he is very easy going, relatable, and realistic.
