Get your Canadian seaplane rating flying the rugged British Columbia coast with Fort Langley Air and be ready for any environment. Our graduates are employed as commercial pilots all over the world. 

Since the 1960s thousands of pilots have completed their floatplane training on the Fraser River. Our year-round, local training grounds provide some of the most challenging seaplane and amphibious conditions in the world: mountains, lakes, oceans and rivers, currents, coastal harbours, canyons, and winds. The Fort Langley Air training team is made up of experienced, working bush pilots and coastal experts. You will train on one of our Cessna 180s. We are honoured and proud to be contributing to the aviation community by continuing to assist you, as pilots, with your goal of becoming floatplane-certified!
