Privileges

CAR 401.03 Requirements to Hold a Flight Crew Permit, License or Rating

In a nutshell, to exercise license (or permit, or rating, etc.) privileges, you must:

  • have a valid license
  • have the appropriate medical certificate
  • carry these with you when exercising the privileges

CAR 401.04 Flight Crew Members of Aircraft Registered in Contracting States Other than Canada

Basically, if you want to fly a non-Canadian registered aircraft in Canada, you need either a Canadian license, or a license or foreign license validation issued by the contracting state.

But what can you actually do with an ATPL??

CAR 401.34 ATPL Privileges - Aeroplane

  • exercise the privileges of a PPL and CPL (aeroplane)
  • with a Group 1 instrument rating and appropriate type rating, while engaged in a commercial air service on an airplane that requires a minimum of two pilots, act as PIC (this is the exciting part!) or co-pilot

While we're at it...

CAR 401.47 Instrument Rating Privileges
  • operate in IFR as appropriate for the group endorsed on the license
  • exercise privileges of VFR OTT rating

CAR 401.48 Instrument Rating Period of Validity
  • valid up to 24 months
    • no recency required in first 12 months
    • second 12 months require 6 IFR hours and 6 IFR approaches every 6 months (6-6-6 rule)
