Excess of expenses over revenue
(1) In order to align with other Canadian issuers and in anticipation of IFRS, reflects a
change in accounting policy to capitalize (rather than expense) directly attributable
internal labour and travel costs. This has amounted to $50 million for fiscal 2010.

AIS Production - 2010
• NAV CANADA Designs
– Procedure Designs – 1025
– Approach Minima Assessments – 167
• 3rd Party Quality Assurance - 143
• Total Annual Design Production – 1335

625 Regulatory
167 Unplanned Database changes
100 reworked due to unclear requirements
100 design reiterations due to customer feedback and
new concepts
– 50 ‘what if’ assessments
– 300 new procedures (internal and external customers)

Production Increase
• Business case approach for determining
production capacity
– RNAV/RNP/LPV where feasible (Who is equipped
and where?)
– Efficiency benefits
• Capacity will be adjusted using demand
information from:

TP 308 vs Approach Minima
In Mountainous Terrain
• Loose and formal exceptions to TP 308 no longer
allowed
– Results in significantly higher approach minima
• TC open to solutions based on current set of rules
(design criteria)
• Use of FAA TERPS 8260.54A now approved by TC
– Allows combination of GNSS with ILS/LOC designs
– GNSS used in the Missed Approach to provide lower
minima
• Following Airports impacted (Pub Date):

Kelowna (January 2011)
Terrace (March 2011)
Penticton (June 2011)
Kamloops (Under Analysis)

WAAS Coverage
• WAAS coverage
has increased
• Now captures
more area of:
– Northern
Canada
– East Coast
• Potential for
more LPV
procedures

Wind Turbines
• Wind farm development can impact
aviation safety
• Growth in wind power has the potential
of poking numerous “holes” in primary
radar coverage and impacting ability to
provide associated air traffic services.
• Need to address cumulative impact from
a systems perspective.
• Next generation surveillance will reduce
concern. But we aren’t there yet…
• Working collaboratively with the Wind
Turbine Industry on:
– Process
– Technical solutions
