I think I have it right...but how do I know if each one is valid?

You forgot radio station license, it's required whenever you aren't within US or Canadian boundaries OR if you're using a non-aeronautical radio.

You don't need a station licence. Or intercept orders. Or W&B. Technically...

This was all covered in another thread http://www.avcanada.ca/forums2/viewtopi ... hlight=ftm


As for validity, C of A is the one with the most ways to get screwed. You have to make sure it is there, dated, has current information, etc. Then just read it. It has a list on it that should point you in the right direction. To keep the CofA valid you have to comply with the poh/afm, inspect the airplane prior to flight, feul it, make sure it's within w&b, make sure it's got time left before the next maintenance due, ensure that any airworthyness directives have been complied with... If you aren't sure, hvae an instructor go over it with you WITH the actual docs, even if it costs you half an hour of ground brief it's worth the money not to fail this item on the test.

I still have my origional ATPL with the green stripe on it.

On the back is printed my radio license, is that good enough?

Cat. Myoriginal commercial license had a green stripe..Myoriginal ATR (Not ATPL, or "A" license as seems to be called today) had a reddy stripe.

When was yours issued?

The one I have now was Re-issued on Mar 13/1972 and has a green stripe.

My origional was issued in the middle 60's and some hooker stole it off me one night in Denver whan she got up without waking me and took my wallet with her.

P.S. :

I'm still searching for that contact number in my document files...I keep getting so f.ckin angry reading all the stuff from Ottawa that I have to close the file for fear I may go to Tower C in Ottawa and do something I may regret.

The radio station licence isn't the licence you get for writing the radio exam (which I don't know if you need or not,) the radio station licence is the one for the actual radio. You need that going outside us/canada, so if you went to Mexico you'd have to have it. Or if you're using a non-aeronautical radio (one not built for planes,) you need one for that.

Is there still a station licence issued with the plane? As I understood it you have to apply for one if you're in one of the circumstances noted above.

If the radio is restricted to transmitting only in the aeronautical band and is permanently mounted in the aircraft and you are operating within Canada you do not need a radio station licence. I am pretty sure that you are also OK to operate in the statets without the station licence but I'm not 100% sure.

If you will operate outside of Canada (or the States I think -- see above) you will need to apply to Industry Canada for a radio station licence.

If your radio can transmitt on frequencies outside the aeronautical band you need to apply to Industry Canada for a radio station licence regardless of where you are flying (in Canada or not).

If the radio is not permanently installed in the aircraft you need to apply for a licence again, regardless of the area of operation. That being said, I think that the small handheld radios are exempt due to their lack of power -- but again, on that point I could be wrong.
