NAV CANADA08 SEP 22AERONAUTICAL INFORMATION CIRCULAR 26/22NEW PROCEDURES FOR THE USE OF A GROUNDADVISORY FREQUENCY AT NANAIMO (CYCD) AIRPORT(Replaces AIC 18/22)The purpose of this aeronautical information circular (AIC) is to inform pilots and air traffic services (ATS) ofnew procedures associated with the introduction of a ground advisory (GND ADV) frequency for use atNanaimo Airport (CYCD).Procedures When the GND ADV frequency is operational, pilots operating on the apron and taxiwaysup to the hold line for runways in use at Nanaimo Airport will be exempt from maintaininga continuous listening watch and making reports on the mandatory frequency (MF)(reference: Canadian Aviation Regulations [CARs] subsections 602.97 (2), 602.98 (1), andsection 602.99). While operating on the ground, ATS will instruct pilots to make all frequencychanges. New operating restrictions regarding communications on the MF and the GND ADVfrequency will be specified by the Minister in the Canada Flight Supplement (CFS). New procedures for use of the GND ADV frequency at Nanaimo Airport will be published inappropriate aeronautical publications, as noted below.Pursuant to CARs subsection 602.98 (1), the Minister has authorized NAV CANADA ATS to specify operatingrestrictions regarding communications intended for the MF and assign a GND ADV frequency for use atNanaimo Airport, for aircraft operating on the apron and taxiways up to the hold line before the runway in use.This action has been taken to reduce the frequency congestion on the MF and reduce safety hazardsassociated with said congestion.Coincident with this action, during periods when the GND ADV frequency is operational, pilots will be exemptfrom the requirements of CARs sections 602.97, 602.98, and 602.99. Pilots must still adhere to CARssections 602.100 to 602.103, inclusive.Referenced CARs are reproduced in Appendix A on page 3 of this AIC.Pilots are advised to review the exemption and adhere to the conditions listed in the most current version of“Exemption from Subsections 602.97 (2), 602.98 (1), and Section 602.99 of the Canadian AviationRegulations.” This can be found on the Transport Canada website under “Exemptions to the CanadianAviation Regulations (CARs)”: exemptions-canadianaviation-regulations-cars .Effective 16 June 2022, NAV CANADA will provide ground traffic information, pre-taxi clearances (whereavailable), and other advisory information on the GND ADV frequency.During this change, the automatic terminal information service (ATIS) message will contain information topilots regarding use of the GND ADV frequency.Note: Cette information est aussi disponible dans l’autre langue officielle.Page 1 of 4

NAV CANADA08 SEP 22AERONAUTICAL INFORMATION CIRCULAR 25/22IMPLEMENTATION OF SELCAL32 IN GANDEROCEANIC CONTROL AREAIntroductionGander international flight service station (IFSS) has the selective calling system (SELCAL) installed on allinternational frequencies at Gander Radio. It is used to instruct flight crews to call air traffic services (ATS) ona specific high frequency (HF) radio frequency. Because of this, the use of SELCAL codes enables flightcrews to maintain a SELCAL watch in place of a listening watch on HF.BackgroundThe number of codes available are limited and can lead to similar code assignments to aircraft that are inclose proximity to one another. Due to the safety implications of this, the International Civil AviationOrganization (ICAO) has enabled the use of an additional 16 alphanumeric designations, increasing the listto 32. Equipment for both air navigation service providers (ANSPs) and aircraft will need to be upgraded toallow for the transmission and receipt of the alphanumeric codes. The applicability date for this has been setby ICAO to be 03 November 2022.Equipped aircraft operators can contact Aviation Spectrum Resources, Inc. (ASRI) for verification of aSELCAL code that can include any of the 32 alphanumeric designations available.However, due to resource allocation in the recovery from the pandemic, NAV CANADA and other NorthAtlantic (NAT) ANSPs will not be ready to transmit the additional codes until the spring 2023.ProceduresFor flight crews who are not equipped to receive the additional codes, there are no changes.Flight crews who have received verification of a new 4-digit combination of the 32 alphanumeric codes willneed to do one of the following to continue receiving HF service from Gander Radio: Retain your original SELCAL code if possible and continue to use it until the spring 2023; or Maintain a listening watch on the applicable HF radio frequency.DocumentationRefer to AIP Canada, Part 1 – General (GEN), Section GEN 3.4 and Part 2 – Enroute (ENR), SectionENR 7.5 for more information on the SELCAL services and procedures in the Gander oceanic controlarea (OCA).For more information on ICAO standards and recommended practices (SARPs) related to SELCAL, refer tothe following publications: ICAO Annex 10 – Aeronautical Telecommunications, Volume II, Chapter 5 ICAO Annex 10 – Aeronautical Telecommunications, Volume III, Chapter 3 ICAO Doc 4444 – PANS-ATM , Chapters 10, 15 and Appendices 2 and 3 ICAO Doc 7030 – Regional Supplementary Procedures, NAT Region, Chapter 3 ICAO Doc 9432 – Manual of RadiotelephonyNote: Cette information est aussi disponible dans l’autre langue officielle.Page 1 of 2

NAV CANADA11 AUG 22AERONAUTICAL INFORMATION CIRCULAR 24/22NOTICE OF UPDATED TIMELINE FORADS-B OUT PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTSMANDATE IN CANADIAN DOMESTIC AIRSPACE(Replaces AIC 2/22)IntroductionIn February of 2022, Canada announced an automatic dependent surveillance – broadcast out (ADS-B Out)Performance Requirements Mandate for applicable Canadian Domestic Airspace. The mandate put forward aphased approach to expand the delivery of safety and efficiency benefits made possible by the availability ofspace-based ADS-B surveillance, with the first phase planned for implementation beginning in early 2023.Since that announcement, NAV CANADA and Transport Canada have worked closely to evaluate stakeholderfeedback and, due to supply-chain limitations experienced by some customers in the context of the globalpandemic, a review of the effective dates was carried out and the implementation timeline is being updated.This aeronautical information circular outlines the updated ADS-B Out Performance Requirements Mandateimplementation phases, areas of applicability, and equipage requirements, and provides background onADS-B usage in Canada. It also outlines safety and efficiency benefits associated with the capability forexpansion of surveillance to areas where it was previously not available, thereby providing greater situationalawareness for air traffic service personnel and pilots.BackgroundADS-B Out is an electronic surveillance technology on board an aircraft that automatically broadcasts flightinformation from the aircraft via a digital data link. The data is used by air traffic systems to depict theaircraft’s position and altitude on display screens.NAV CANADA, the air navigation service provider for Canada, has provided ground-based ADS-Bsurveillance service in portions of CDA at flight level (FL) 290 and above since 2008. The availability ofspace-based ADS-B since 2019 has enabled air traffic service (ATS) surveillance throughout the entirety ofCDA. This has brought many benefits in areas and at altitudes where coverage was previously unavailable,by enabling significant safety, operational and infrastructure efficiency gains. In areas where ATS surveillancealready exists, the introduction of ADS-B for surveillance will provide value by removing coverage gaps andadding redundancy in surveillance sources, resulting in more seamless operations and a stronger system.The implementation of the ADS-B Out Performance Requirements Mandate leverages advancements insatellite-based navigation and aligns with International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and TransportCanada performance-based navigation (PBN) plans.Equipage RequirementsTo demonstrate compliance with the ADS-B Out mandate, aircraft will be required to: be equipped with an appropriate transponder with ADS-B Out capabilities and performancewith the applicable standard of Radio Technical Commission for Aeronautics (RTCA)DO-260B, “Minimum Operational Performance Standards,” or newer. have antenna capability for broadcast toward space-based ADS-B receivers emitting1090 MHz extended squitter. This requirement can be met either through antenna diversity(the use of a top and bottom antenna) or with a single antenna that is capable of transmittingboth towards the ground and up towards satellites.Note: Cette information est aussi disponible dans l’autre langue officielle.Page 1 of 3

11 AUG 22Operators are expected to file the following ADS-B equipage in Item 10 of the ICAO flight plan: B1 ADS-B with dedicated 1090 MHz ADS-B “Out” capability, or B2 ADS-B with dedicated 1090 MHz ADS-B “Out” and “In” capability.Area of Applicability and Phased ImplementationThe ADS-B Out mandate will be enabled through airspace classification designation and amendment totransponder airspace requirements, as described in the Designated Airspace Handbook (DAH), TP 1820E.Implementation is planned to occur over multiple phases: Class A airspace commencing 10 August 2023 Class B airspace commencing 16 May 2024 Class C, D and E airspace commencing no earlier than 2026Class F and Class G airspace are not affected by the ADS-B Out mandate.This approach will help achieve the maximum benefits of a performance-based mandate within acceptabletimelines, while providing aircraft operators and owners adequate time to meet the equipage requirementsgiven aviation’s supply-chain considerations.Page 2 of 3AERONAUTICAL INFORMATION CIRCULAR 24/22
