NOISE ABATEMENT PROCEDURES
| Consistent with limiting factors, all aircraft shall use rwy 09/27
between 0400 – 1500z. |
CONTINUOUS DESCENT ARRIVAL
(CDA)
Per NAV Canadia:
In Canada we have 20 airports with RNAV STARS which are basically
constant descent arrivals into the terminal areas (from assigned
FL to below 5000’). Depending on the traffic, there would
be no restrictions until landing.
At our major and secondary airports, CDAs are used at all times
for descent to the terminal (from assigned FL to below 10,000
and below – The constant descent is then revised by ATC
depending on traffic, metering requirements, aircraft equipage).
At most secondary airports and tertiary airports, aircraft are
cleared for the approach. This is basically a CDA controlled by
the pilot until landing, unless ATC needs to apply a restriction
(level off) due to inbound/outbound IFR traffic (assuming no surveillance
capability). |

CHAPTER 2 RESTRICTIONS
| Chapter 2 airplanes >75,000 lbs are banned from operating in
Canada except for those aircraft authorized by the Minister of Transport
(northern exemptions). |
CHAPTER 2 PHASEOUT
| The phase out of Chapter 2 airplanes >75,000 in
Canada was complete as of April 1, 2002. Those airplanes are ban
from operating in Canada with the exception of a very limited number
of exemptions for aircraft operating to northern and remote locations. |
CHAPTER 3 RESTRICTIONS - NONE
COMMENTS
Background:
On December 16, 1977, the Ministry of Transport approved the Air
Navigation Order (ANO) Series II, Number 21. This order required
all aircraft covered by Annex 16 to comply with Annex 16 (or FAR
36 or U.K. noise certification requirements depending on the country
of manufacture) in order to receive a Certificate of Noise Compliance.
On and after January 1, 1986, an aircraft without a valid Canadian
Certificate of Noise Compliance (carried on the aircraft) will not
be permitted to operate international flights to or from designated
noise sensitive runways of certain "noise restricted; airports.
Effective June 30, 1979, all Canadian newly registered aircraft,
or foreign registered aircraft leased by a Canadian air carrier
until January 1, 1986, must meet Annex 16, Chapter 2 standards.
On and after January 1, 1988, this order is applicable to all aircraft
operating in Canada. |

procedures and noise control requirements specified by the Minister
in the Canada Air Pilot or Canada Flight Supplement, including the
procedures and requirements relating to |
(a) preferential runways;
(b) minimum noise routes;
(c) hours when aircraft operations are prohibited or restricted;
(d) arrival procedures;
(e) departure procedures;
(f) duration of flights;
(g) the prohibition or restriction of training flights;
(h) VFR or visual approaches;
(i) simulated approach procedures; and
(j) the minimum altitude for the operation of aircraft in the
vicinity of the aerodrome.
|
602.106 (1) Subject to subsection (2), no person shall
operate a subsonic turbojet aeroplane that has a maximum certificated
take-off weight of more than 34,000kg (74,956 pounds) on take-off
at a noise restricted runway set out in column II of an item of
the table to this section at an aerodrome set out in column I of
that item, unless there is on board |
(a) a certificate of airworthiness indicating that the aeroplane
meets the applicable noise emission standards;
(b) a certificate of noise compliance issued in respect of the
aeroplane; or
(c) where the aeroplane is not a Canadian aircraft, a document
issued by the state of registry that specifies that the aeroplane
meets the applicable noise emission requirements of that state.
|
(2)Subsection (1) does not apply |
(a) to the extent that it is inconsistent with any obligation
assumed by Canadan in respect of a foreign state in a treaty,
convention or agreement;
(b) where the pilot in command of an aircraft has declared an
