Flightlab

Flightlab (AVIA1002) introduces the practical aspects of flight from the cockpit of an aircraft thereby enhancing the theoretical portion of our three-year Aviation Management diploma program. The course consists of six hours of in-flight instruction in a four-seat aircraft (along with three other students and your pilot) as well as two hours of ground briefing.

Flightlab will run concurrently with Aviation Orientation (AVIA1000) in Semester one. Aviation Orientation is the theory component of FLIGHTLAB. Upon completion of this course, students will have demonstrated the ability to:

• explain aircraft documentation and identify aircraft pre-flight procedures;
• describe weather factors relating to flight safety procedures;
• outline various air maneuvers and emergency procedures;
• explain basic instrument navigation techniques;
• associate weight and balance calculations with aircraft performance calculations;
• explain VOR and ADF tracking; and
• verbally demonstrate aircraft handling procedures.

Advanced Flightlab (AVIA2001) continues and enhances the principles introduced in Flightlab. It applies VFR navigation theory of the program through cross-country flight and reinforces navigation and navigation aid concepts from the cockpit of an aircraft. The course consists of five hours of in-flight instruction (along with three other students and your pilot) as well as two hours of ground briefing. Advanced Flightlab will run concurrently with Navigation and Navigation Aids (AVIA2002) in semester four. Navigation and Navigation Aids is the theory component of Advanced Flightlab. Upon completion of this course, students will have demonstrated the ability to:

• prepare VFR cross country flights;
• participate in a VFR cross country flight;
• participate in an IFR cross country flight; and
• explain the operation of instruments used in IFR navigation.

After completing both FLIGHTLAB and Advanced FLIGHTLAB, students will have received a total of four hours of ground training and 11 hours of in-flight training. The in-flight training in both courses will be with three other students, plus the pilot, in a four-seat aircraft. The combined 11 hours of in-flight training is designed to enhance training in a cockpit environment at a significantly reduced cost than that of a student obtaining this level of training privately.

Your cost

The cost of FLIGHTLAB is $610 and includes flight and ground transportation. This cost is included in your total first-year fees which are due in June. The cost for Advanced FLIGHTLAB is estimated at $610 and will be due at the same time as your semester four fees (due in March – price subject to change without notice).

If you currently have a PPL, commercial pilot’s licence or have completed more than 22.5 hours of flight time toward your PPL, you may apply for an exemption from FLIGHTLAB and Advanced FLIGHTLAB. In addition, if you have passed the Transport Canada ground school test, you may apply for an exemption from Aviation Orientation. Exemptions will be granted on an individual basis. Please contact the Aviation Management co-ordinator at 705.728.1968, ext. 1419 for more details.

Ground transportation

Transportation to the airport from the college is included in the FLIGHTLAB and Advanced FLIGHTLAB fees. There will be no weekend flying required unless weather conditions dictate a change in the established flight timetables.

• Art and Design Fundamentals
• Goldsmithing and Silversmithing
• Interior Design – first year only
• Jewellery and Metals
• Visual and Digital Media Arts

The footwear must meet CSA standard Z195-09 for Protective Footwear.  There are two levels of protection: green triangle and yellow triangle. Green triangle provides better protection and is more common, therefore is the preferred footwear.

Green triangle footwear has sole puncture protection with a Grade 1 protective toe (withstand impact up to 125 joules).

Yellow triangle footwear has sole puncture protection and Grade 2 protective toe (withstand impact up to 90 joules)

Local retailers offer affordable alternatives for protective footwear in a variety of styles. However, we may also invite a business that sells protective footwear to the campus at the beginning of the fall semester, for your convenience.

If you have any questions, please contact your program co-ordinator.

Protective footwear

If you are enrolled in any of the programs listed below, you will be required to wear protective footwear to prevent injury when working in some of the labs:

• Art and Design Fundamentals
• Goldsmithing and Silversmithing
• Interior Design – first year only
• Jewellery and Metals
• Visual and Digital Media Arts

The footwear must meet CSA standard Z195-09 for Protective Footwear.  There are two levels of protection: green triangle and yellow triangle. Green triangle provides better protection and is more common, therefore is the preferred footwear.

Marking

Green triangle footwear has sole puncture protection with a Grade 1 protective toe (withstand impact up to 125 joules).

Yellow triangle footwear has sole puncture protection and Grade 2 protective toe (withstand impact up to 90 joules)

Local retailers offer affordable alternatives for protective footwear in a variety of styles. However, we may also invite a business that sells protective footwear to the campus at the beginning of the fall semester, for your convenience.

If you have any questions, please contact your program co-ordinator.

This information is subject to ongoing review and change.

Software requirements

Students will need to purchase their own license for Adobe Creative Cloud (Adobe CC). Although we are planning to offer some remote and onsite access to this software via the downtown labs, lab times available may be limited during peak periods and there is a potential for onsite access to be restricted due to public health considerations or other disruptions.

Computer requirements

While lab-based instruction for the Photography program normally takes place on Mac computers, Adobe CC software operates on both Mac and Windows platforms, so students may choose to use either a Mac- or Windows-based desktop or laptop at home.

Adobe CC software is resource intensive and requires more than entry-level hardware to operate efficiently. Below are some recommended computer configurations for both Mac and Windows based desktops and laptops.

Additional storage recommendation

In addition to the basic computer requirements listed below, Photography students need to plan for additional hard drive storage as still image and video file sizes can be quite large. It is recommended that students have at least two 2TB hard drives: one for data storage and an additional hard drive for use as a backup. These are minimum requirements; two 4TB hard drives would be preferred.

Memory card access

All students in the Photography program will also require an appropriate memory card reader for the card used in their camera. While some computers will come with this built in, others will require a peripheral device that can be plugged into one of the ports on the computer. Please refer to your camera and computer documentation to determine these requirements.

External monitor for laptop

If using a laptop as a primary computer for photo editing, it is highly recommended to use an external monitor as this will make it easier for editing, as well as allow for enhanced colour management.

Recommended Mac configurations

Recommended Windows configurations

Windows desktop PC or laptop specifications (laptop requires external monitor)

• Intel Core i7 or AMD Ryzen 7 processor
• 16GB of RAM
• 500GB SSD disk
• One full size USB port
• High-end graphics video card (consider a dedicated video with 2GB of video memory)
• Wireless 802.11ac
• Windows 10
• A display of 24″ or larger is recommended

External hard drives

External hard drives are essential as the amount of data that will be produces for still and video production will be large. Two external 4TB hard drives are recommended (one primary and one backup).

These hard drives should not be USB powered, but AC powered.
