Airport Growth 2008 – 2017 • New Nav Canada Control Tower (Opened TODAY) • Total Aircraft 80 to 250 • Corporate Aircraft 5 to 50 • Aviation Businesses 6 to 18 • Hangar Space 50,000 to 400,000 sq.ft • Aviation Fuel Sales 500,000 to 1.5m litres/year • GDP $58m to $80-100m annually • Corporate Flights 350 to 5000 annually • Circuit Movements 40,678 to 30,045 • Total Movements 70,666 to 70,690 Noise & Traffic Management Plan The airport is required to work within the requirements and limitations of the Canadian Aviation Regulations (CAR’s). The CAR’s do not permit any airport to limit the type of aircraft, volume of traffic, hours of use or runway used. (AC 302-001, CAR 602.105) All Noise and Traffic Management measures at the Oshawa Executive Airport have been established with the support and cooperation of our tenants and airport users. Noise & Traffic Management Plan • All airport related activity and development has been relocated to the airports Northfield. • Residential development along Thornton Rd south of the airport golf course was not permitted. • Area north of the airport was designated and zoned for industrial development. • All new site plans within 4km of airport are circulated to airport. • Restricted application from Seneca College to move its flight school to the airport. • No new land sales for a flight school use. • Will not grant APM approval for any new flight schools. (TC Requirement) • Not to pursue scheduled passenger service. • Any new passenger service will need to undertake a study to determine the noise impacts. Noise & Traffic Management Plan Night Operational Limitations: Between the hours of 10:30pm and 6:30am, only police, medical and industrial emergency flights are permitted to land and take off from the Oshawa Executive Airport. Airport tenants with aircraft based at the Oshawa Executive Airport are permitted to land between the hours above, but are not permitted to take off, independent from police, medical and industrial emergency flights. Noise & Traffic Management Plan Preferential Runway Use, Departure Procedures & Arrival Procedures * NAV Canada reserves the right to deviate from these procedures for safety and traffic volume considerations Right Hand Circuits RWY 12 & RWY 23: Aircraft will use a right hand circuit for runways 30 and runway 23. Preferential Runway Use: Runway 30 is the preferential runway at the Oshawa Executive Airport. Aircraft will use this runway when the winds are calm. (5kts) Departure Procedures: Aircraft leaving the Oshawa Executive Airport will continue to fly on the Runway heading until they reach 1,000 ft above sea level (ASL) (540 ft above ground level (AGL)) before they turn. Arrival Procedures: Aircraft flying into the Oshawa Executive Airport will remain at least 1,000 ft above sea level (540ft above ground level) before making the turn for their final approach for landing. Noise & Traffic Management Plan Noise & Traffic Management Plan * NAV Canada reserves the right to deviate from these procedures for safety and traffic volume considerations • Prior permission by the Airport Manager is required for all flight training including private and commercial pilot recurrent training. • A maximum of 12 aircraft are permitted in the circuit for training purposes at any given time. • Flight training aircraft will not utilize a touch-and-go circuit pattern on all runways after 4:00pm on any Saturday or Sunday. • During the holiday long weekends, circuit training is not permitted on the Sunday or Monday on all runways. (No touch and go or full stop circuits) • Taxiway Charlie was established to facilitate the efficient use of Runway 05/23 particularly during periods when touch-and-go departures are not permitted. Noise & Traffic Management Plan • An earthen noise berm was constructed at the north east corner of the airport to mitigate ground based noise associated with the new Hangarminium development. • Two earthen noise berms were constructed at the south limit of the airport to mitigate ground based noise affecting the new Stephenson Road housing development. • An earthen noise berm was constructed at the south east limit of the airport to mitigate ground based noise affecting the Jane Street area residents. Flight Training & Simulator Use • Integrated Airline Transport Pilot License (IATPL) program: • Students are required to follow a stringent set of lesson plans where they meet skill and proficiency levels in the simulators before completing similar exercises in the aircraft. • This reduces the amount of time students spend in the aircraft and particularly in the circuit pattern practicing their landings. Additionally, Transport Canada provides greater credit for simulator time towards the licencing requirements for those enrolled in a IATPL program. The minimum aircraft time for an IATPL program graduate is 162.5 flight hours versus 200 hours for the modular Commercial Pilot Licence (CPL) graduate. This is almost 20% less aircraft time to acquire the same licence. • A typical modular program candidate will create 900-1200 aircraft movements (take-offs & landings) throughout the course of their training. The same IATPL student will create approximately 350 movements. This reduction in movements is a direct result of the use of the simulators. Flight Training & Simulator Use • Durham Flight Centre (DAS) has added 1 full motion flight simulator for use in their career flight training program. • Canadian Flight Academy (CFA) has added 3 full motion flight simulators for use in their career flight training program. • Starting in January 2019 CFA will also be offering a Transport Canada approved Integrated Airline Transport License (IATPL). Transport Canada allows for a higher utilization of flight simulators. • Standard pilot career training to a multi-engine commercial pilot license without the use of a simulator typically generates between 900-1200 aircraft movements. • Standard pilot career training to a multi-engine commercial pilot license with the use of a simulator typically generates between 700-850 aircraft movements. • An Integrated Airline Transport License (IATPL) with high simulator utilization typically generates approximately 350 aircraft movements
