3-8 CANADA c. Enroute flight of non-radio equipped aircraft or with an equipment that is not able to establish communication with the Air Traffic Service unit, providing it is kept under visual conditions, takeoff is performed from airport with no Air Traffic Service unit and it does not cross international frontiers. (SPEC/GEN 1.7-1) ROUTE AND AREA RESTRICTIONS - 1. Rio De Janeiro TCA a. Aircraft that carry out parachuting, aerobatic flight or towing shall establish two-way radio communication with the appropriate ATC unit and maintain permanent listening on the appropriate frequency during flight. If it is not possible to establish communication with the unit responsible for the area, make contact with nearest control unit. b. Pilots are cautioned as to the possibility of unmanned hot air balloons occurring mainly in May, June, and July. (SPEC/ENR 2.1.1-2R) c. IFR aircraft off airway, entering TCA from NW sector shall transit via PAI VOR. (SPEC/RIO SAO PAULO AREA CHART) 2.

(SPEC/ENR 3.1.1-2B) CANADA NATIONAL PROCEDURES GENERAL INFORMATION/FIR/UIR COVERAGE - This entry includes EDMONTON, GANDER DOMESTIC, MONCTON, MONTREAL, TORONTO, VANCOUVER and WINNIPEG FIRs. NOTE: For description of airspace see "CHARACTERISTICS AND CLASSIFICATIONS OF AIRSPACE" in Section "C" of CANADA FLIGHT SUPPLEMENT. DIMENSIONAL UNITS - Blue Table except: 1. RELATIVELY SHORT DISTANCES - Feet. 2. WIND DIRECTION FOR LANDING AND TAKE-OFF - For airports within Northern Domestic Airspace area only - Degrees True. 3. VISIBILITY - Statute miles. 4. RUNWAY VISUAL RANGE - Feet. 5. ALTIMETER SETTING - Inches of mercury. 6. WEIGHT - Pounds. (SPEC/GEN 1-6) ALTIMETER SETTING PROCEDURES - Standard except: 1. REGIONS DESIGNATED WITH SEPARATE PROCEDURES - Canadian Airspace is divided into two "Regions" (Altimeter Setting Region and Standard Pressure Region) to provide altimeter setting procedures most compatible with the airspace characteristics involved. For delineation and graphic portrayal of the two "Regions" see Canada and North Atlantic FLIP Enroute Low Altitude Charts and the "Planning" Section C of the Canada Flight Supplement. 2. ALTIMETER SETTING REGION - Consists of the S region and is confined to low-level (below 18,000’ MSL) airspace, much of which is controlled. Within this region altimeters shall be set to indicate altitude above Sea Level (QNH). a. ARRIVALS/DEPARTURES - Set aircraft altimeters to current setting for airport being used. b. ENROUTE - Altimeters shall be set to the current setting of the nearest station along the route of flight or, if such stations are separated by more than 150 NM, to the setting of the nearest station to the route of flight. 3. STANDARD PRESSURE REGION - Includes all airspace over Canada at and above 18,000’ MSL plus all the low-level airspace lying outside (generally N) of the lateral limits of the "Altimeter Setting Region". The low-level portion of the "Standard Pressure Region" is characterized by the complete absence of controlled airspace. Within this region, altimeters shall be set to Standard Pressure of 29.92 Hg/1013.2 mb (QNE) and the vertical position expressed in terms of Flight Level in accordance with the following procedures: a. DEPARTURES - When departing from an airport within the "Standard Pressure Region", climb shall be conducted with reference to the altimeter set at the current airport setting (QNH). Immediately prior to reaching the Flight Level at which the flight is to be maintained, reset the altimeter to Standard Pressure (QNE). b. ENROUTE - Maintain Standard Pressure setting (QNE). All reference to altitudes shall be made using the term "Flight Level". c. ARRIVALS - If continuous descent from cruising Flight Level to an airport within the "Standard Pressure Region" is planned, set the altimeter to the current airport setting (QNH) immediately prior to commencing descent. NOTE: Holding procedures shall be conducted with the altimeter at Standard Setting (QNE). Immediately prior to descending below the lowest Flight Level at which holding will be conducted, change the altimeter to the airport setting (QNH). d. TRANSITION PROCEDURES - There are no designated Transition Levels/Altitudes in Canadian Airspace. When it is necessary to change the setting of an altimeter due to flight movement out of or into the "Altimeter Setting Region", such change shall always be made on the side of (within) the "Standard Pressure Region" immediately after leaving or prior to entering the "Altimeter Setting Region" whether the movement is lateral, climbing or descending. Normally, the pilot will receive the appropriate station altimeter setting (QNH) as part of his ATC clearance prior to commencing descent. If, for any reason, the QNH is not incorporated in the clearance, the pilot shall obtain same. 4. Altimeter overreadings (aircraft at lower level than the altimeter indicates) by as much as 3000’ can occur in the
Standard Pressure Region when a combination of an unusually low atmospheric pressure and extremely low temperature are encountered along with a further "local drop" in pressure resulting from the increase in wind speed associated with Mountain Waves. Pilots should keep in mind that, when computing pressure drops from a given wind speed, the error is nearly twice as great in saturated air as it is in unsaturated air. (NAV CANADA/GPH 204, CH 7, SEC 2) VERTICAL SEPARATION - Semi-circular. For certain exceptions see the "CRUISING ALTITUDE DIAGRAMS" in Section "C" of the Canadian Flight Supplement. Also note on the Canada and North Atlantic Enroute Charts that the pointed end of the airway/air route identifier indicates direction of flight for even altitudes on the Enroute Low, and for "A" levels on the Enroute High. ATC, at their discretion, may assign an altitude not appropriate to these indicated directions of flight. For reason of icing, turbulence, operating limitations or fuel conservation a pilot may therefore request and, if feasible, ATC may assign an altitude not appropriate to the direction of flight. However, if the pilot initiates the request he is expected to advise ATC as soon as he is able to accept an altitude that is appropriate to the direction of flight. (NAV CANADA/GPH 204, CH 8, SEC 1) POSITION REPORTING - Standard except: 1. For operations in the Northern and Arctic Control Areas see Special Procedures under Flight Planning. 2. The pilot of an aircraft assigned an altitude NOT appropriate to the direction of flight will NOT be authorized by ATC to omit position reports when in a radar environment. (SPEC/RAC 8-1) Standard VFR except: VISUAL FLIGHT RULES 1. WEATHER MINIMA FOR VFR FLIGHT - a.

(NAV CANADA/GPH 205, SEC C & RAC 2-8) 2. CONTROLLED VISUAL FLIGHT RULES (CVFR) PROCEDURES - a. File a flight plan and obtain an ATC clearance prior to entering Class B Airspace. ATC clearance will not normally be issued prior to take-off, but rather upon receipt of a position report filed by the pilot upon reaching the last 1000’ altitude below the base or before entering laterally. The clearance shall be read by the pilot to assure accuracy. This procedure is intended to ensure that radio equipment is operating and to remind the pilot that outside of Class B Airspace ATC separation is not provided and that they must maintain a vigilant watch for other traffic. The ATC clearance will contain the phrase "MAINTAIN (altitude) VFR". All military pilots flying under CVFR must possess a valid instrument rating and CVFR flight must be conducted in accordance with procedures designated for use by IFR flight, except that when IFR weather conditions are encountered, the pilot of a CVFR flight must avoid such weather conditions. This should be accomplished by: (1) Requesting an amended ATC clearance which will enable the aircraft to remain in VFR weather conditions. (2) Requesting an IFR clearance if aircraft is equipped for IFR flight. (3) Requesting a special VFR if within a control zone. b. If unable to comply with the preceding, ensure that the aircraft is in VFR weather conditions at all times and leave Class B Airspace horizontally or by descending. If the airspace is a control zone, land, at the airport on which the control zone is based. In both cases inform ATC as soon as possible of the action taken. (NAV CANADA/GPH 204, CH 4, SEC 4 & RAC 5-3) 3. CLASS C AIRSPACE OTHER THAN A CONTROL ZONE - a. In the interest of flight safety around major airports a special service to VFR flight is provided.
