Serving our communities since 1964
At flying clubs and meeting halls from Newfoundland & Labrador to Vancouver Island to Canada’s Far North, COPA members are coming together to preserve the spirit of flight in their communities. You can help boost community aviation awareness while participating in locally sponsored aviation activities and events as members of a COPA Flight.
Activating your COPA Flight
Each COPA Flight needs to register and renew their annual status by end of every calendar year. If the information is not up-to-date, insurance coverage and any contributions COPA promised will become null. COPA Flights can update their status using the following form. (printable form, which can be e-mailed to the office at copa@copanational.org can be found here)

Recognition
Consider nomination your local COPA Flight for a COPA Flight Excellence Award. The COPA Flight Excellence Award was introduced in 2022 and is designed to recognize excellence in an active COPA chapter and its members for their commitment, service, and involvement in their COPA Flight, aviation and/or community-at-large. Nominations are made by COPA members and/or COPA Flights.
