About

Welcome to Dan’s Landing, my home on the web.

I am a student pilot close to finishing my Canadian Private Pilot’s Licence. I started my training with Toronto Airways at Buttonville Airport (CYKZ) where I completed ground school. I continued my training with the now defunct Peninsulair at Hamilton Airport (CYHM) where I first soloed and I am now flying with the Brantford Flying Club at Brantford Airport (CYFD). After I complete the PPL I plan on going on to a Commercial Pilot Licence and an Instructor Rating.

In April 2011 I graduated from the Computer Engineering and Management program at McMaster University where I focused on embedded systems design using 8 bit and 32 bit microcontrollers. I am currently enrolled in the Masters of Engineering program at McMaster University.
