New AULA Flying Boat Amphibian

January 2019 -- AeroVolga, aircraft manufacturer of the Borey Amphibious Aircraft, received Transport Canada's letter of acceptance for the Borey model A, an Advanced Ultra-Light Aeroplane (AULA). This is the first amphibious flying boat AULA of 2019 in Canada and will certainly provide an advantage to Flight schools. Students will be able to acquire their Ultra-Light Pilot permit on land and get checked out as a seaplane pilot.
