- Aviation Aids
- Several Organizations provide information to assist in the understanding of flight. The aids noted below are available for all to advance their understanding of the basics and safe operation of aircraft.
Forces of Flight Poster.
The "Forces of Flight," is a new poster created to help classroom teachers to excite and engage students about science.
The Air Cadet League of Canada, through the auspices and funding of the Air Transport Association of Canada - (ATAC) (development and production) and the Canadian Aviation Maintenance Council - (CAMC) (translation, printing and distribution), is privileged to announce the publication of the Your Safety at the Airport checklist. Copies of this checklist are being forwarded to all squadrons, though the ACL Provincial Committees.
The main purpose of this checklist, according to Wayne Gouveia, ATAC's VP -General Aviation, "is to provide guidance to Air Cadet Squadrons visiting the airside of the airport/heliport environment. The checklist introduces and reinforces common ramp safety procedures to ensure a safe, enjoyable and educational visit to airport facilities."
We believe that this checklist will prove invaluable, be it for a general squadron visit to an airport or for the more particular use of those cadets directly involved in actual flying.
Squadrons staff and Cadets can now access the Flying Scholarship PIP, that was created by Atlantic Region, on the Share Point. This PIP is a self-paced study program that will help guide cadets through their ground school studies, in preparation for the flying scholarship exam. The zip file is 198MB and therefore cannot be emailed. The file has been uploaded to SharePoint so staff can download to their CCO/Personal computers.
Cadets or other NON-COATS personnel can access this PIP on the
File Repository. Click/Tap the link below, and follow the instructions to create an account.
