About the Program

This Discover Aviation event is organized by the Qualicum Beach Flying Club. This free-of-charge aviation program brings COPA member pilots together one-on-one with kids aged 8 – 18 to introduce them to aviation and give them the experience of being in the cockpit of an aircraft in flight.
