Air Cadets to learn to fly at Harv's Air!!

Harv's Air - The very best in flight training

Continuing a successful program from 2002 and 2003, the Air Cadet league and the Department of National Defense have once again decided Harv's Air to be worthy of training Air Cadets toward their Private Pilot Licence in 2004. This page will be used for progress reports and information before, during, and after the air cadets training. Feel free to contact us if you have questions.

The Royal Canadian Air Cadets is an organization for Canadian youth between the ages of 12 and 19. The Air Cadet organization is based on a military structure, but the youth involved remain civilians and have no commitment to serve in Canada's military at any time.

Harv's Air Flight School is a family owned and operated air service located just south of Steinbach, Manitoba. Offering both accelerated but very comprehensive courses for all licences and permits from the Recreational Permit on through to the Multi-IFR and Instructor Ratings. Since 1972 we have taken pride in offering the very best in flight training, in the safest, most enjoyable way possible.
