Alberta Aerospace and Technology Centre EIA Fact Sheet Services at and around Edmonton International Airport (EIA) continue to expand. A consortium made up of EIA, Edmonton Economic Development Corporation (EEDC), Canadian North and Canadian Helicopters is working towards developing an aerospace training hub at the airport. Substantial investment from Canadian North, Canadian Helicopters and the Government of Alberta demonstrates these groups’ commitment to flight safety through synthetic flight training. This long-term project, the Alberta Aerospace Training Centre (AATC), will support local jobs, generate millions of dollars in economic impact and support Port Alberta. The first AATC project, the installation of a Level D Boeing 737-Classic Simulator, was completed under the leadership of Canadian North. The simulator’s full-size 737 cockpit accurately recreates all the noise, movement and visuals that are expected when operating Boeing 737-300, -400, and -500 series aircraft. This project is a huge draw for a target market consisting of roughly 300 owners and commercial operators who represent over 3,000 pilots from across North America and overseas. Canadian Helicopters has implemented an on-site AS350 Level 7 Flight Training Device helicopter simulator in partnership with the consortium and EIA. This Flight Training Device is the first in North America to allow synthetic training based programs to replace actual flight hours in the helicopter. These two projects are only the first steps in establishing the Edmonton region as an internationally-recognized flight training hub.

1; Just After Midnight on May 31 2013, an Air Ambulance Helicopter Crashed Shortly After Take-Off from the Airport at Moosonee Ontario on James Bay
ONTARIO COURT OF JUSTICE Central West Region Brampton Ontario BETWEEN: HER MAJESTY THE QUEEN -and- 7506406 CANADA INC. (ORNGE) REASONS FOR JUDGMENT Duncan J. 1; Just after midnight on May 31 2013, an air ambulance helicopter crashed shortly after take-off from the airport at Moosonee Ontario on James Bay. Tragically, the two pilots, Captain Don Filliter and First Officer Jacques Dupuy and two paramedics, Dustin Dagenais and Chris Snowball, were killed. 2.

Omge is a non profit company contracted to the Ontario Ministry of Health to provide air ambulance service, both fixed wing (airplane) and rotor-wing (helicopter), in the province. The defendant numbered company is a federal corporation owned by Omge that operates the rotor-wing division. 3. The defendant corporation was originally charged in an information sworn May 29 2014 with 17 counts under the Canada Labour Code. Many of these counts were withdrawn at the start of the trial and others were withdrawn or amended during the trial. An earlier ruling in this case details the circumstances surrounding those events: see 2017 ONCJ726. 2 4. At the end of the evidence the defendant stood charged with six remaining counts, all contrary to sections 124 and 148 of the Canada Labour Code, of failure to ensure employee safety in three particularized ways. Later, in written and oral submissions, the Crown furthered narrowed the case by seeking convictions on only 3 counts: • Count 3: that on or about May 31 2013, 7 5 06406 Canada Inc failed to ensure employee safety, contrary to section 124 of the Canada Labour Code Part II, by failing to provide pilots with a means to enable them to maintain visual reference while operating at night, thereby committing an offence contrary to section 148(1) of the Canada Labour Code Part II.

Helicopters serve and support a number of sectors of helicopter industry is the Canadian economy.
