While implementation of the <a href="https://www.ainonline.com/aviation-news/business-aviation/2023-04-27/canada-sets-ads-b-flight-plan-non-equipped-rules">Canadian ADS-B mandate</a> in Class A airspace remains set for August 10, continued supply-chain issues have prompted Nav Canada to provide a 90-day transition period until November 8.
In a recent letter to stakeholders, Nav Canada acknowledged that operators who are equipping their aircraft to meet the Canadian ADS-B mandate are facing continuing <a href="https://www.ainonline.com/aviation-news/business-aviation/2022-08-04/supply-issues-prompt-delay-canada-ads-b-mandate">supply-chain challenges</a>. “Aviation occurrence reports will not be filed during this transition period in the event that an aircraft not equipped in accordance with the Canadian ADS-B mandate or has not received an ADS-B accommodation agreement enters airspace where ADS-B is mandatory.”
Subsequent to this period, Nav Canada “will continue to assess accommodation requests through ADS-B accommodation agreements and strive to accommodate aircraft unable to transmit ADS-B in accordance with Canada’s ADS-B Out requirements, similar to circumstances where aircraft without functioning transponders request entry into transponder mandatory airspace.”
In the letter, Nav Canada also reminded operators about entering the following ADS-B equipage codes in Item 10 of the ICAO flight plan: B1 (ADS-B Out capability) or B2 (ADS-B Out/In capability). In addition, aircraft properly equipped need to include the following entry in Item 18 of the flight plan: SUR/CANMANDATE.
