Transport Canada Civil Aviation
Regulatory and Standards Activities
After a few years with little activity in the regulation
and standards area for Transport Canada Civil
Aviation, the agency's Policy and Regulatory Services
branch has been busy implementing the new Canadian
Aviation Regulation Advisory Council system and
cleaning up the backlog of notice of approved
amendments. During the introduction of the new
CARAC system, several items were identified to be
processed without going through a technical committee
or any further review. During the last several
months, NPAs have been introduced for many of the
airworthiness design standards to harmonize with
the current amendment level of the Federal Aviation
Regulations.
Six NPAs were introduced in June 2014 under the
new simplified process, which meant the NPAs would
only go through an online consultation period of 30
days. There would be no technical committee review
or any other consultation. If there are no dissenting
comments, then they would be published. All of the
NPAs were published in July 2014, demonstrating

process frees resources to develop and implement
more critical items.
In October, several additional NPAs were introduced
using this same process covering AWM 516, 523, 525,
527, 529 and 533. Regulatory Services is processing
several other items to move the civil aviation regulatory
environment ahead and close many outstanding items.

One of the biggest problems for the general
aviation market in Europe is the relatively expensive
changes to GA aircraft due to cost implied by design
organization and/or the agency being involved in the
approval process.
Recently, the agency issued Notice of Proposed
Amendment 2014-24 in regards to certification
specification for standard changes and repairs.
This NPA issued in October provides a proposal for a
