How to Apply
Application Process
Life in Flight™ evaluates prospective students for practical and academic skills, based on our eligibility requirements. After screening your application, you’ll interview with Moncton Flight College and a representative from the company where you’ll work as a pilot, to further evaluate your potential and help you build a successful aviation career.

Built-In Support for Future Pilots
We recognize that the pathway to becoming a pilot is costly, so we’ve designed Life in Flight to include financial support and built-in job security – the first and only program of its kind in Canada.
Life in Flight candidates are eligible to apply for a student line of credit, up to $125,000 as required, to cover the cost of pilot training at Moncton Flight College. Then, program graduates have a solid career path of employment as flight instructors and pilots within our family of companies. After completing five years of work, Life in Flight candidates are also eligible for a $25,000 commitment award.
