Flight Training in Vancouver? Abbotsford vs. Boundary Bay vs. Pitt Meadows Discussion

Which is the best airport for you to do your flight training at if you're in Vancouver? In this Zoom round-table discussion I meet up with some students who have trained at various airports in Vancouver and we compare our experiences. I wish I could have seen this kind of video before I started flight training!
This is my continuing journey to becoming a commercial pilot at the late age of 37, and I am happy to bring all of you along for the ride!
Here is a link to the aviation study group AND international student flight school channel which this video talks about:

Please feel free to share this with any of your other friends who might be considering learning to fly in Canada.
And... here is the link to the amazing spreadsheet!

Hi Adam, your videos has been really helpful. Have you heard of Lakeside flight training and what’s your opinion on them, specifically for international students? Thank you

[@LateDeparture]

You should check out the discord channel as I personally haven't heard of them but we might have some info in our spreadsheet or in the information sections on it: discord.gg/kKnvQvquVP

Hi all. Happy to watch this video. I’m starting my PPL training at Boundary Bay Airport and watching this makes me excited to meet fellow student pilots and share laughs and stories.

[@ivanenriquez7995]

may I ask which school in Abbotsford does Ms. Kelsey fly in? Currently looking for a flight school! :)

[@LateDeparture]

You can talk with her directly on the Discord group (discord.gg/9jn69VpzFF) but she flies at Principal Air which I've heard is a pretty great school with friendly staff.

Awesome thank you!
