22 October 2003 (Winnipeg, Manitoba) - Flying Colors Pilot Training today announced the latest addition to its aircraft fleet, a Piper PA28R-200 Arrow. The Arrow is a retractable, low wing, complex single engine 4-place aircraft.

"This aircraft meets the complex aircraft requirements for our advanced and integrated training programs." explained Michael Bland, General Manager and Chief Flight Instructor at Flying Colors. "It is extremely well-equipped and bridges the gap between our 2-place Katanas and Perimeter's multi-engine Beech Travelair. Many of our pilots are already planning to upgrade their skills, obtain their single-engine IFR ratings and obtain valuable retractible-gear experience. This aircraft will be available for training, rental and block time bookings."
