Simulators

Pacific Flying Club has three flight simulators available for use.

Pacific Flying Club has a state-of-the-art Al Sim MCC200 Level 5 Beechcraft King Air 200 Simulator for training. This advanced technology is utilized in all the courses and is the most advanced simulation available at Boundary Bay Airport. IFR renewal rides can now be done on this simulator saving a pilot time, money and concerns about icing levels and fog.

They also have a full motion Red Bird flight training device on-site, available to both members and students. With realistic wrap-around visuals, a fully enclosed cockpit and full-motion capability for both single and multi-engine operations, the Redbird is Transport Canada certified for IFR renewal Flight Tests. The Redbird provides tremendous flexibility and compatibility, greatly enhancing the learning experience while reducing costs.

Finally, the PFC Elite FTD offers fabulous visuals and is a great instrument trainer. It's perfect for IFR training or working on instrument training for the Private Pilot Licence.

Diploma Program

Pacific Flying Club partners with British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT) to provide the "Airline and Flight Operations - Commercial Pilot" diploma. The program allows the student to achieve a Commercial Pilots License, a Multi-Engine rating and an Instrument Rating as well as obtaining a college diploma. The program starts in May of each year.

The program, started in 2002, has recently undergone changes and an update to the syllabus. It is delivered in four consecutive academic terms, with small breaks for holidays and flying time. Program length has been extended to 18 months in total duration, up from 16 months originally. This was partially for additional breaks and flying, allowing for the possibility of extended periods of inclement weather.

The British Columbia Institute of Technology has recently constructed a $76 million dedicated Aerospace Technology Campus to serve the future demand for educational spots in an expanding industry. The campus opened in 2007, is 285,000 square feet (26,500 m2), including a 43,000-square-foot (4,000 m2) hangar featuring a Westjet Boeing 737-200.
