Flight Instructor Rating (Burlington)

As one of the busiest flight schools in Ontario, Spectrum Airways prides itself on the instructors we hire. As a flight school with high standards, the flight training conducted by our instructors is some of the best in the industry, and we are proud of the instructors we train. Because of this regimented training, we have a preference for instructors trained here. As a class IV instructor you can expect to earn a competitive starting wage, and log 600-1000 hours per year.

*Due to fluctuation of the Industry, obtaining the Instructor Rating with us
does not necessarily guarantee a job at Spectrum Airways. All Instructor Ratings are conducted in Burlington.
