Mission
To demonstrate the value of general aviation by inspiring and educating the general public through positive direct interaction with a group of visiting aviators touring small community
Economic Development
- In 2017, the Canadian Owners and Pilots Association (COPA) commissioned a study by InterVISTAS to look at the value of general aviation in Canada. The study revealed that general aviation contributes:
- 9.3B to the Canadian economy directly from aviation (does not include commercial operations).
- 35,000 Full time equivalent jobs (FTE’s) directly from the General Aviation sector.
Communities Engagement
- Focus on the interface / education of the relevance of general aviation.
- Engagement and involvement of elected officials, and business community members.
- Invite communities to showcase their uniqueness of spirit and assets, and join together to enjoy a free outdoor event of aviation and sunshine at their local airport.
Safety
- Air Tours pilots are thoroughly briefed on normal and emergency procedures throughout each tour.
- Safety of the public, volunteers and the pilots continues to be the number one priority.
- At the conclusion of each tour, all the lessons learned are compiled and implemented to increase the safety.
