Prairie Aviation Training Centre

PATC is a flight school in Three Hills, AB dedicated to providing exceptional training, growth, and community to students from first solo to CPL and beyond.

Combine a passion for adventure with your desire to help the lost, sick and injured, and learn to use one of the most effective ministry tools.

Prairie College of Mission Aviation seeks to properly equip students to serve God's Kingdom and meet the greatest needs of the world. Students are built up to be confident, capable, skilled and safe as aviators.

We offer a low student to instructor ratio and a thriving, closely knit Christian community to learn in. This allows students to always be able to access the support, challenge and encouragement they need.
Students are given many unique opportunities as part of their training including; experience in complex and conventional gear aircraft, mountain flying, low level navigation, landing on grass strips, aerobatics introduction, multi-day cross countries across Canada or to the United States, and more.
PCMA is also one of the few schools globally to be endorsed by mission aviation organizations, including; Mission Aviation Fellowship, and Africa Inland Mission.
