MFC Training Highlights 

  • MFC Training first left the ground in 1929 and has since grown to become one of the largest and most experienced flight training schools in Canada.  
  • MFC Training graduates over 350 or more fully trained commercial pilots every year for many of the world’s airlines.  
  • MFC Training provides all levels of pilot training for both domestic and international markets 

  • From Recreational Pilot Permits to our Professional Commercial Pilot and Instructor Programs, MFC Training can meet training needs with a fleet of over 50 aircraft.
     
  • Because of its location, pilots benefit from four-season training and are better equipped to safely manage different weather conditions.
