Operational Update • Cockpit Voice Recorders • 407 MHz ELT • TAWS • ACAS • WAAS RDIMS# 564695 v1
Cockpit Voice Recorders • CAR/CASS 605/625.33 amended Sept. 1, 2003. • Aircraft Manufactured after Dec. 31, 2002, require 2 hour CVR. RDIMS# 564695 v1
406 MHz ELT • Cospas-Sarsat Council planned termination of 121.500 MHz capabilities by February 1, 2009. • ICAO agreed termination date of 2008. • Transport Canada NPAs for 406 MHz ELTs for International Operations RDIMS# 564695 v1
TAWS (Part VII NPA’s) • New NPA’s for CAR 703, 704, 705 reviewed by Part VII Technical Committee meetings in 2003. • NPA’s passed at Oct. 29, 2003 CARC Committee, now with DOJ. • Estimate 1-2 years before regulations come into effect. • New aircraft compliant at promulgation. • All aircraft compliant by promulgation + 2 years. • Compliant with Altitude Accuracy Requirements by promulgation + 5 years. RDIMS# 564695 v1
TAWS (Part VI NPA’s) • New NPA’s for CAR 605 scheduled to be presented at GOFR in Dec. 2003 • Requires TSO C-151 Class B TAWS for Turbine Powered aircraft with 6 or more passenger seats. RDIMS# 564695 v1
TAWS (Summary Table) 1Altitude Accuracy requirements apply (Alerting required independent of altimeter setting or deviations from ISA). 2Relief from TAWS requirements for Day VFR operations. 3Terrain & Airport database must be suitable for area of operation. 4Class A TAWS (including Terrain Display) is always sufficient where a Class B TAWS is mandated. RDIMS# 564695 v1
ACAS (Part VII NPA’s) • New NPA’s for CAR 702, 703, 704, 705 passed at Oct. 29, 2003 CARC, now with DOJ. • Estimate 1-2 years before regulation come into effect. • Existing aircraft compliant by promulgation + 2 years. • New aircraft compliant at promulgation. RDIMS# 564695 v1
ACAS (Part VI NPA’s) • New NPA’s for CAR 605 scheduled to be presented at GOFR in Dec. 2003 • Similar criteria to CARs 702 and 704 RDIMS# 564695 v1
ACAS (Part VI &VII Summary Table) Note 1 -- TCAS II SW 7.0 and Mode S required for RVSM airspace. RDIMS# 564695 v1
WAAS • WAAS commissioned by FAA in July 2003. • Good signal coverage in Alberta, Sask. & BC (due to U.S. reference stations in Alaska) • Stations proposed for Winnipeg, Goose Bay and Gander starting 2005 RDIMS# 564695 v1
WAAS • Current guidance material on GPS in CBAAC 123R is applicable to operations using WAAS receivers. • WAAS receivers may be used to fly all existing GPS approaches. • There are not yet any Canadian approaches which take advantage of additional WAAS capabilities (e.g.: LPV approaches) RDIMS# 564695 v1
