Canadian Aviation Regulations Practice Test 4 Of 6

The aircraft owner is responsible for ensuring that applicable airworthiness directives are carried out. Airworthiness directives are issued by the regulatory authority to address safety concerns or mandatory maintenance requirements for aircraft. It is the responsibility of the aircraft owner to comply with these directives to ensure the airworthiness and safety of the aircraft. The AME (Aircraft Maintenance Engineer) is responsible for performing the necessary maintenance tasks, but the ultimate responsibility lies with the aircraft owner. The AMO (Aircraft Maintenance Organization) is a maintenance facility that may be involved in carrying out the directives, but they are not ultimately responsible. Transport Canada is the regulatory authority that issues the directives but is not responsible for ensuring their implementation.

The aircraft owner is responsible for ensuring the proper maintenance of an aircraft. As the owner, they have the ultimate responsibility for the safe operation of the aircraft, which includes maintenance. They are responsible for ensuring that the aircraft is maintained in accordance with the manufacturer's recommendations and applicable regulations. This includes scheduling regular inspections, repairs, and maintenance tasks to keep the aircraft in airworthy condition. The owner may delegate the actual maintenance work to qualified individuals or organizations, such as an AME (Aircraft Maintenance Engineer) or AMO (Approved Maintenance Organization), but the overall responsibility lies with the owner.

New regulations must be published 60 days prior to implementation in The Canada Gazette. The Canada Gazette is the official newspaper of the Government of Canada, where all new regulations, proposed regulations, and other official notices are published. This ensures transparency and allows stakeholders and the public to be informed about upcoming regulations and have an opportunity to provide feedback or raise concerns before they come into effect.

A provisional registration is issued for the purpose of importing an aircraft to Canada.

The correct answer is 150 hours per month to 1800 hours per year. This means that an AME (Aircraft Maintenance Engineer) can accumulate a maximum of 150 hours of maintenance experience per month and 1800 hours per year. This limit ensures that the AME has a balanced workload and does not exceed the maximum allowable maintenance experience time.

An Aeroplane certified in the Transport category is granted a Certificate of Airworthiness. This certificate is issued by the aviation authority and signifies that the aircraft meets the necessary safety and performance standards to operate in commercial air transportation. It ensures that the aircraft has been inspected, tested, and found to be in compliance with the applicable regulations and airworthiness requirements.

In order to install a life limited part on an aircraft, it is necessary to have a complete technical history of the part available. This ensures that the part has been properly maintained and meets all necessary requirements for safe use on the aircraft. Without a complete technical history, it would be impossible to determine the condition and suitability of the part, which could pose a risk to the safety of the aircraft and its occupants. Therefore, it is crucial to have this information before installing a life limited part on an aircraft.

The AME who signs the maintenance release determines whether a test flight is required following a maintenance operation. This is because the AME is responsible for ensuring that the aircraft is safe and airworthy after maintenance. They have the knowledge and expertise to assess whether a test flight is necessary to verify the proper functioning of the aircraft systems and to ensure the safety of the flight. The pilot in command may also have input in this decision, but ultimately it is the AME's responsibility to make the final determination.

An air operator must have a quality assurance program, a training program, and defect rectification and control procedures. These elements are essential for ensuring the safety and efficiency of operations. A quality assurance program helps to monitor and evaluate the performance of the air operator and identify areas for improvement. A training program ensures that employees are properly trained and competent in their roles. Defect rectification and control procedures are necessary to address any issues or malfunctions promptly and effectively. Therefore, an air operator must have all of these components in place.

The correct answer is "An aeroplane with a MCTOW of more than 5700 kg." This means that a large aeroplane is defined as an aeroplane with a Maximum Certificated Takeoff Weight (MCTOW) that exceeds 5700 kg. The MCTOW is the maximum weight at which the aircraft is certified to take off and land safely. Therefore, any aeroplane with a MCTOW greater than 5700 kg would be considered a large aeroplane.

Both a and b would be considered an Airworthiness Limitation. Limitations set out by the manufacturer in the instructions for continued airworthiness are important for maintaining the aircraft's airworthiness and safety. Life-limited parts also have specific limitations and requirements for maintenance and replacement to ensure the continued airworthiness of the aircraft. Therefore, both of these options would be considered airworthiness limitations.

Specific purpose flight permits may be processed by fax. This means that in cases of emergency, the permit can be obtained by sending the necessary documents and information via fax. This allows for a quicker processing time, as the permit can be obtained without the need for physical submission of paperwork. Faxing the documents allows for a more efficient and convenient process in emergency situations.

A Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) is a document issued by Transport Canada that approves a change in the type design of an aircraft. This means that the STC allows for modifications or alterations to be made to an existing aircraft design, while still maintaining its airworthiness and compliance with safety regulations. The other options listed, such as Type Certificate, Design Modification Approval, and Approval of Conformance, do not specifically pertain to approving a change in the type design of an aircraft.

Airworthiness Directives issued against an aircraft by a foreign airworthiness authority are mandatory where the foreign airworthiness authority controls the type design of the aircraft. This means that if the foreign airworthiness authority has authority over the design of the aircraft, any directives issued by them must be followed. This is important for ensuring the safety and airworthiness of the aircraft, regardless of the country in which it is being flown.

An AME (Aircraft Maintenance Engineer) licence is normally valid for a period of 10 years. This means that once an individual obtains the licence, it will be valid for a decade unless it is suspended, surrendered, or cancelled before that time. The duration of the licence is not dependent on the holder's citizenship, but rather on the standard validity period of 10 years.

The correct answer is "The person who has legal custody and control of the aircraft." This means that the owner of the aircraft is the person who has the legal right to possess and control it. They are responsible for the maintenance, operation, and overall management of the aircraft. This definition is important in determining who is legally liable for any incidents or accidents involving the aircraft.

CARs, which stands for Canadian Aviation Regulations, are authorized under the Aeronautics Act. The Aeronautics Act is a federal legislation in Canada that provides the framework for the regulation and control of civil aviation activities. It empowers the Minister of Transport to create and enforce regulations, such as the CARs, which govern various aspects of aviation safety, security, and efficiency. Therefore, the Aeronautics Act is the correct answer as it is the primary legislation that grants authority for the creation and implementation of CARs in Canada.

Air time refers to the duration from the moment an aircraft takes off and leaves the surface until it touches down at its next landing point. This includes the time spent in flight and excludes any time spent on the ground.

An AMO must appoint a Person Responsible for Maintenance. This individual is responsible for ensuring that maintenance tasks are performed properly and that the aircraft is maintained in accordance with the regulations and standards set by the aviation authorities. They oversee the maintenance program, coordinate maintenance activities, and ensure that all maintenance records are properly documented. The Person Responsible for Maintenance plays a crucial role in maintaining the safety and airworthiness of the aircraft.

Maintenance carried out on aircraft operated under CAR Part IV and CAR Part VII must be carried out by an AMO. This means that the maintenance needs to be performed by an Approved Maintenance Organization, which is an organization approved by the aviation authority to conduct maintenance activities on aircraft. The AMO ensures that the maintenance is carried out according to the required standards and regulations, ensuring the safety and airworthiness of the aircraft.

Part IV, subpart 3 of CARs pertains to AME licensing. This section specifically addresses the requirements and regulations for Aircraft Maintenance Engineer (AME) licensing in Canada. It outlines the qualifications, examinations, and experience necessary for individuals to obtain and maintain their AME license.

CAR 222 is the correct answer because it is a regulation that specifically addresses aircraft markings. CAR stands for Civil Aviation Regulation, and CAR 222 provides the standards and requirements for the markings that must be displayed on aircraft. This regulation ensures that aircraft are properly identified and marked for safety and regulatory purposes.

CAR Part V, subpart 73 refers to regulations for Approved Maintenance Organizations (AMOs). AMOs are entities that are authorized by aviation regulatory bodies to perform maintenance, repairs, and inspections on aircraft. These regulations outline the requirements and standards that AMOs must adhere to in order to ensure the safety and airworthiness of the aircraft. They cover areas such as personnel qualifications, facilities, equipment, documentation, and quality control. AMOs play a crucial role in maintaining the integrity and reliability of aircraft, and these regulations ensure that they operate in a consistent and standardized manner.

CAR 726 is the correct answer because it specifically deals with Commercial Air Service Standards. The other options, CAR 706, Airworthiness Manual Chapter 563, and CAR 625 Appendix B, do not pertain to commercial air service standards.

Provisional registration is not a form of flight authority because it is a temporary registration that allows an aircraft to fly for a limited period of time while it undergoes the necessary inspections and certifications for full registration. It does not grant the same level of authority as the other options, which are all forms of flight authority that allow an aircraft to operate under specific conditions or for specific purposes.

The correct answer is that specialized maintenance must be carried out according to the MPM (Maintenance Policy Manual) of an appropriately rated AMO (Approved Maintenance Organization). This means that the maintenance work should be done by a professional maintenance organization that has the necessary qualifications and expertise in the specific specialty area required for the maintenance task. The MPM provides guidelines and procedures for carrying out maintenance tasks in a safe and effective manner.

CAR 102.01 indicates a regulation. This means that it is a rule or requirement that must be followed by individuals or organizations. Regulations are typically put in place by governing bodies to ensure safety, compliance, or to achieve certain objectives. In the context of CAR 102.01, it suggests that there is a specific regulation being referenced or discussed.

The Aeronautics Act is the correct answer because it is the primary legislation that governs aeronautics in Canada. It establishes the framework for aeronautical regulations and empowers the Minister of Transport to make regulations for the safety and efficiency of air transportation. The Canadian Aviation Regulations (CARs) are made under the authority of the Aeronautics Act and provide specific rules and standards for aviation in Canada. The Canadian Aviation Regulatory Advisory committee (CARAC) is a consultative body that provides advice to Transport Canada on regulatory matters, but it does not have the same authority as the Aeronautics Act. The Air Navigation Orders are a set of regulations that were repealed and replaced by the CARs.

The correct answer is CAR 625, Appendix G. This appendix specifically contains the procedures for inspections after abnormal occurrences.

The correct answer is "As soon as practicable, but at least before the next flight". This means that any defect discovered in an aircraft or its equipment should be entered in the aircraft journey log as soon as possible, but it must be done before the next flight. This ensures that the defect is properly documented and can be addressed before the aircraft is flown again, ensuring the safety of the flight and passengers.

CAR 507 is the correct answer because it refers to the regulations governing Flight Authority. The other options, AWM manual Chapter 571, AWM 573, and CAR 501, do not specifically mention Flight Authority regulations. Therefore, CAR 507 is the most relevant choice.

Category "M" AME licence is rated for aircraft. This means that individuals holding this licence are qualified to perform maintenance and repairs on aircraft.

Primary structure refers to the parts of an aircraft that bear the weight and loads during all phases of flight. This includes the wings, fuselage, tail surfaces, engine mounts, and landing gear. These structures are essential for the overall integrity and safety of the aircraft. Any failure in the primary structure could potentially jeopardize the safety of the aircraft, making it a critical component that must be carefully designed and maintained.

Altimeters and altimetry devices must be recertified every 24 months on aircraft operating under IFR or day VFR in Class B airspace.

The appropriate placards required on an aircraft operating under CARs are specified in the Aircraft type certificate data sheet. This document provides detailed information about the aircraft type, including its design, performance, and operating limitations. It also includes the requirements for placards that need to be displayed on the aircraft for safety and regulatory purposes.

The correct answer is "All of the above". This means that TC approvals authorizing changes to a type design can be any of the options mentioned, which are Supplemental Type Certificate, Limited Supplemental Type certificate issued before Dec 1, 2009, and Repair Design Approval.

"Maintenance" refers to the overhaul, repair, required inspection or modification, or removal and installation of aeronautical products, but it does not include elementary work and servicing. This means that maintenance involves more complex tasks related to the repair and modification of aeronautical products, rather than basic and routine servicing.

An appropriately rated AME is allowed to make a declaration of condition and conformity on the application for a C of A. Additionally, in the case of new aircraft, an authorized representative of the manufacturer is also permitted to make this declaration.

An appropriately rated AME may sign a maintenance release for an aeronautical product, except in the following cases: if the maintenance is performed outside Canada and the person is authorized to sign under the laws of a state that is a party to an agreement with Canada, if the maintenance is performed on an amateur built aircraft and the person is the owner of the aircraft, and if the maintenance is performed on aircraft parts and the person is authorized to sign by an AMO. Therefore, all of the above options are exceptions to an AME signing a maintenance release.

A Restricted Certification Authority (RCA) allows an individual to certify specific maintenance tasks or modifications on aircraft, as outlined in their authorization. This authorization is typically limited to certain types of aircraft or specific maintenance procedures. RCAs are often granted to individuals with specialized expertise or experience in a particular area of aircraft maintenance.

CAR Part V refers to the Canadian Aviation Regulations (CARs) Part V, which specifically deals with airworthiness standards and certification requirements for aircraft in Canada. These regulations outline the minimum requirements for the design, construction, and maintenance of aircraft to ensure their airworthiness and safe operation. Therefore, CAR Part V is the correct answer as it directly relates to airworthiness regulations.

The correct answer is the aircraft owner. Specialized maintenance on an amateur-built aircraft can be certified by the owner themselves. Unlike other types of aircraft, amateur-built aircraft are not subject to CARs (Canadian Aviation Regulations), so the owner has the authority to perform and certify maintenance on their own aircraft.

The Aeronautics Act authorizes the Governor in Council to make regulations to carry out the Minister of Transport's mandate.

The given options include different types of aircraft categories, such as Transport, Manned Free Balloon, and Glider and powered glider. However, Commercial is not an aircraft type category. This is because "Commercial" refers to the purpose or use of an aircraft, rather than a specific type or category. Commercial aircraft can include various types, such as airliners, cargo planes, or business jets, which fall under different categories like transport or general aviation.

The specification tables for aircraft position lights can be found in CARs 625, Appendix I, Schedule 1.

The terms "Provisional, Restricted, Amateur-Built, and Limited" all refer to specific types of Special Certificates of Airworthiness (C of A's). These certificates are issued for aircraft that do not meet the standard airworthiness requirements but are still deemed safe to fly under certain conditions or limitations. These special C of A's allow for temporary or restricted operation of the aircraft until it meets the necessary requirements for a standard C of A.

The term "serviceable" in relation to an aircraft or aircraft part means that it is fit and safe for flight. This means that the aircraft or part is in a condition that allows it to be used for its intended purpose without posing any risks or hazards. It implies that all necessary maintenance and inspections have been carried out, and any required repairs or replacements have been made to ensure the safety and functionality of the aircraft or part. It does not necessarily imply compliance with specific standards or regulations, but rather focuses on the overall airworthiness and suitability for flight.

The Minister may grant a type certificate for aircraft, aircraft engines, propellers, and appliances. This means that these aeronautical products have met the necessary requirements and standards set by the Minister to ensure their safety and compliance with regulations. The type certificate signifies that these products have been thoroughly tested and approved for use in the aviation industry.

The correct answer is "Within 30 days of the maintenance being performed". This means that the maintenance details recorded in the journey log must be transferred to the technical log within a maximum of 30 days after the maintenance has been carried out. This ensures that the information is properly documented and available for reference in the technical log, which is important for the ongoing maintenance and operation of the aircraft.

The correct answer is that the aircraft design conforms to the required standards of airworthiness. This means that the design of the aircraft meets all the necessary criteria and specifications to ensure its safety and reliability for flight. It implies that the aircraft has been thoroughly evaluated and approved by Transport Canada to meet the necessary standards for airworthiness.
