Learn about our community
Our Airport Community
London International Airport is proud of our vibrant aviation community, which continues to grow as we develop our lands. We've had a lot of exciting new additions over the years, from Diamond Aircraft, to ITPS (International Test Pilot School), and so many more. We look forward to welcoming even more new community members in the future as businesses take advantage of our low lease rates and long-term leases, as well as the advantage of customizing lot needs to meet exact tenant specifications.

Welcome to Diamond Flight Centre London! We have been training pilots at the London International Airport (CYXU) since 2009. We operate a fleet of modern training aircraft manufactured right here in London, Ontario by Diamond Aircraft Industries. We are registered as a Private Career College (PCC) in the province of Ontario under the Private Career Colleges Act 2005 (see DFC Policies). We are also a Designated Learning Institution (DLI) for International students.
Our training aircraft feature state of the art avionics with glass cockpits often found in current day turboprop and jet aircraft. Glass cockpit avionics increase flight safety by increasing situational awareness for the pilot. By training on modern equipment, it makes the transition to more complex aircraft much easier and gives you a training advantage if you are planning to fly professionally.
We also feature Transport Canada-approved flight training devices that can be logged in your pilot logbook. The flight training devices are used to enhance and augment the training, allowing the pilot to gain experience, practice procedures and techniques, and simulate situations that may not be practical to complete in the aircraft.
