Mr. Charles Cormier Cormier Aviation Consultant 1043 Heenan Terrace Manotick, ON K4M 1J2

Subject: Deviation Approval – IP Submission

Dear Mr. Cormier,

I am writing in response to your letter dated June 26, 2020 where you are requesting the postponement of flight checks for 29 instrument procedures (IP). The request that you have made on behalf of the IP sponsors (as per the attachment) is approved with conditions.

Subsection 803.01(2) of the Canadian Aviation Regulations (CARs) requires that the aeronautical information services be provided in accordance with the standards set out in Annexes 4 and 15 to the Convention on International Civil Aviation. According to Annex 15, the material to be issued as part of an aeronautical information product shall be thoroughly checked before it is submitted to the Aeronautical Information Service. To comply with the verification and validation requirements of Annex 15, Instrument Flight Procedures (IFPs) must be developed in accordance with the CAR 803.02(a) which requires the use of the Criteria for the Development of Instrument Procedures (TP 308). As stated in this document, all instrument approach procedures (IAPs) must be flight checked when they are submitted to NAV CANADA for publishing and distribution.

Compliance with the timely initiation of the flight check, required to complete the aforementioned requirement, is not yet possible due to the current COVID-19 isolation requirements.

To address the foregoing, Transport Canada approves this temporary deviation from the requirements set out in section 170 of TP 308. The purpose of the approval is to permit a sponsor to submit for publishing their IP when all other review activities are completed except for the flight check. This approval does not provide the authority to extent the 5 year period requirement on the flight check of an existing IP.

This approval is valid only for the sponsors and IPs listed in the attachment that cannot be flight checked due to the COVID-19 restrictions imposed on Cormier Aviation Consultation and is subject to the following conditions:

1. NOTAMs shall be used to ensure that no IP becomes effective for use until a flight check deems the procedure satisfactory; 2. NOTAMS shall be used to ensure that no IP remains effective for use when a flight check cannot be completed within a 5 year period; and 3. IPs submitted by the sponsors pursuant to the terms and conditions of this deviation approval shall comply with the CARs in all respects, and the CARs shall continue to apply in all respects other than the specific deviation set out herein, or any other applicable exemption issued by the Minister of Transport.

The approval is in effect until the earliest of the following:

a) February 24, 2021, at 23:59 (EST); or b) the date on which this exemption is cancelled in writing by the Minister where he is of the opinion that it is no longer in the public interest or that it is likely to adversely affect aviation safety or security.

Should you have any questions, please contact Christian Gaillard at 613-990-4870 or [email protected]

Yours sincerely,

Francis Mercier A/Chief, Flight Standards Standards
