A bit of our history
Canavia Aviation Academy was founded in 2009 by Mr. Mario Pons who is the Head of Training and the Chief executive officer of the Firm.
Mr. Pons is also a CN-235 Air Commander for Maritime Rescue, with more than 20 years of experience in the aeronautical sector and extensive air regulations and procedures knowledge.
We started our business as a pilot school and started our professional career teaching private aircraft pilots (PPL) according to the old JAR-FCL regulations, as well as other courses not regulated at that time.
A bit of our history
We are proud to have been the first Spanish aviation school to receive accreditation from the State Aviation Safety Agency (AESA) as an approved educational organization according to EASA European standards in 2013.
CANAVIA is the only aviation school in the Canary Islands that offers all aviation teaching courses. As well as certifications and qualifications relating to the world of aviation approved by the Ministry of Development (in classroom or distance).
In these fifteen years of experience, our school has qualified thousands of students who already fly in the main airlines of the world, or have developed their professional activity such as in executive business flight or other commercial aviation sectors.
