Hi, thanks for message. I deleted your article because
 * it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the company, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the company claims or interviewing its management. You gave no references at all.
 * I also derived all information from their web-site and a pamphlet I got&mdash; see above, their own web site and publications are not independent third party sources other than for uncontentious facts, such as the planes used.
 * To show notability you need more hard verifiable facts, if possible, such as the number of employees, turnover or profits.
 * it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic.
 * Examples of unsourced claims presented as fact include: and is currently the largest flight training operation in Toronto... has been featured in hundreds of news articles... showcasing... is often used by Toronto based news agencies... has also been featured in the children's television program
 * Much of the article consists of a shopping list of the courses they offer. It is difficult to see the encyclopaedic value of this, and it seems to have little purpose beyond promotion


 * If you have a conflict of interest when editing this article, you must declare it. If, after reading the information about notability linked above, you still believe that the organisation is notable enough for a Wikipedia article (and that there is significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources), you could, if you wish, post a request at Requested articles for the article to be created. See also Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest.

If you look at the Worldways Canada article you edited, you will see that it has three independent in-line references, links to other Wikipedia articles and topic categories. Yours had none of these, and was also largely lists rather than prose. It's not the worse I've seen, and if you want to try again, I'll post the deleted text to a user subpage for you to work on, just let me know.
