The team at Harv´s air provides almost all imaginable pilot and air services including: Multi Engine/Instrument Program, Air Taxi, Aircraft Maintenance, Flying School, Airplane Rides, Pilots Mentoring, Pilots Rentals and much more.
Harv's Air offers students and customers tremendous resources for their flight training by having 2 locations. Having 2 locations gives students the choice to best suit their situation and goals.
Private Airport with limited traffic. The practice area is located above the airport. Lower cost (no airport fuel charge). Grass and paved runways. Ideal for students from the southern half of Winnipeg. Steinbach base is located 2 miles south of Steinbach on highway 12. NOT at the Steinbach North airport. Best way to get to Steinbach from Winnipeg is via highway 52/59 or highway 1/12.
Control towered airport, practice area is close by to the north of the school. Multiple runways. Ideal for customers from the northern half of Winnipeg. St. Andrews base is located on 601 Club Road, St. Andrews airport. This is in the middle of the St. Andrews airport complex. When entering the airport, turn north on Airport Drive, then east until the end of Club road.
Students are welcome to fly at either location. Rates are slightly different in St. Andrews due to the cost of operating at a controlled, municipal airport. Please contact Harv´s to discuss which location would be best for you.
The experience of the staff and management is the envy of the aviation training industry. Having the same owner and management for almost 40 years is unrivaled in the industry. Management actually flies and owns the airplanes used by the school. Their staff of instructors are all fully qualified and dedicated to making your flight training the most fulfilling, enjoyable experience possible. They also have several Designated Flight Test Examiners employed in the company ensuring the highest standard of flight training possible and ease of flight test availability. As a customer, the choice of flight instructor you work with is up to you.
Harv´s maintenance staff wants to get the airplanes back in the air where they belong. Aircraft maintenance is carried out by own approved aircraft maintenance organization. This means that school airplanes are priority when it comes to snags and inspections minimizing down time. They take pride in ensuring our maintenance staff is up to date with current regulatory changes and current aircraft maintenance techniques. They also carry extensive spare parts including radios, engines, instruments, aircraft and control surfaces, again minimizing down time.
Harv´s buildings and facilities are the best in the industry.

Modern offices are large and offer many briefing rooms for study and include free access to the internet via wifi. All airplanes are stored in hangars, ensuring they stay clean, safe, and warm all year round.
Harv's Air fleet of airplanes is second to none. They operate a mixed fleet of airplanes consisting of economical trainers, high and low wings, the latest airplanes technology with computerized cockpits, many multi engine airplanes, on up to the challenging tail draggers and the ultimate category aerobatic airplanes. The fleet is large with backups for every type of airplane ensuring you won't be grounded during your training.
They approach to ground school is unprecedented in aviation training.
