For the first time ever, COPA is excited to announce two locations for our COPA Conventions in 2019.

From June 6-8, COPA members and friends of General Aviation will gather at the Innisfail Airport in Innisfail,
AB (CEM4) for the 2019 Western Canadian COPA Convention and Tradeshow. Join us for seminars and
workshops, guest speakers, airport movie night, and the Association’s Annual General Meeting. More details
available soon!
From August 22-24, those in Eastern Canada will have the opportunity to attend the 2019 Eastern Canadian
COPA Fly In at the Cornwall Regional Airport (CYCC), in Summerstown Ontario. Like the Western event, this
gathering promises to be a grassroots celebration of all things General Aviation in Canada. Further details will
be available here in the coming weeks.

COPA FOR KIDS

COPA For Kids aviation program provides — free of charge — an introduction for Canadian youth into the
world of general aviation. To date, the COPA for Kids program has introduced over 23,000 young Canadians to
General Aviation.

The COPA For Kids Program is sponsored by AIG Canada, the underwriters for
the COPA VIP Gold and VIP Silver Aviation Insurance programs and delivered
by our national network of COPA Flights.

COPA Flights and COPA members who wish to fly young people are invited to read the Guide to the COPA For
Kids Aviation Program and see the brochure and certificate that is available for download. Waiver Registration
form only back to back. Volunteer pilots are also required to undergo a Vulnerable Sector Check through their
local police station. Additional details are contained within the Guide.

In partnership with Hangaaar, COPA is providing eligible participants with
complimentary access to Private Pilot Groundschool, online. Hangaaar’s groundschool
course satisfies all of the Transport Canada requirements for classroom training, and
upon successful completion, students will be provided with the recommendation
required to write the Transport Canada written exam.
