Textbook Pickup (Optional)
Once you register, you are welcome to pickup 1 of the textbooks – From The Ground Up – prior to the course, from Buttonville Airport. This is for pre-reading, which is highly recommended. We will also provide some online reading material, along with the textbook.
The remainder of the supplies will be provided to you on the first day of class.
If you reside outside of Toronto, you have the option of having From The Ground Up shipped within Canada. This generally costs $20-25 and takes 5-10 days for delivery, depending on where you are.
Instructions on how to pickup supplies or have them shipped to will be provided after you enrol yourself into the course.
“What if I have the textbooks already?“
We can offer you a refund if you have any of the following textbooks or supplies. The refund will be at the cost at which we purchase them, which is at a discounted rate since we buy them in bulk.
Only the following books or supplies are eligible for a refund, at the rates listed below:
From The Ground Up – $65
Canadian Aviation Weather – $35
Aeronautical Information Manual – $10
E6B Calculator – $15
For accounting purposes, you will still need to pay the full fee and we will then reimburse you back the appropriate amount. When you register, please inform us if you are bringing any of your own supplies or textbooks.
