Aviation Personnel Licensing: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Learn the requirements and renewal processes for maintaining your aviation licenses and medical certifications in Canada.
This scheme manages the official licensing and certification required for people working in the aviation industry in Canada.
Who it's for
This is for active pilots who currently hold Canadian aviation documents.
What you get
By following the licensing process, you maintain your legal status to fly. To keep your license active, you must complete proficiency checks and hold a valid medical certificate.
What it costs you
You will need to pay renewal fees, though the exact amount depends on the specific type of license you hold. You must also invest time into completing required proficiency checks and medical examinations.
The catch to know
The expiry dates on your medical certificate are strictly enforced. You should not wait until the last minute to book your CAME (Civil Aviation Medical Examination) to avoid any lapses in your ability to fly.
How to apply
- Ensure your medical certificate is current and valid.
- Complete any required proficiency checks for your specific license type.
- Submit your renewal documentation through the official channels.
