Michelle Mace CurranGUEST
It's incredible.
Dwayne KerriganHOST
Yeah, I mean, that's the one thing about, I mean, just on a side note with aviation, being a pilot as well, is that getting safety briefs from the FAA or Nav Canada up in Canada here to see what happens with incidents and then going, oh, wow, the learning is like instant.
Dwayne KerriganHOST
And to be able to have that repetition from other people's mistakes or situations or happenings is an amazing thing.
Dwayne KerriganHOST
I mean, you just laid out, I think, a masterclass in debriefing a post incident executed environment, if you will.

It also requires compatible management systems capable of exchanging more data and providing the same operational foundation across different countries.
speaker_0NARRATOR
The iTech Alliance brings together Avinor, DFS, Enira, LVNL, NATS, NavCanada, Oronavigatia, and Panza.
speaker_0NARRATOR
Indra acts as the Alliance's principal technology supplier, while the group also coordinates with Coupens and its industrial partner Thales.
speaker_0NARRATOR
Sharing development costs prevents each provider from building an exclusive platform that would be difficult to integrate.
Michael RyanHOST
once you start listening to it, and what books you would like to hear little excerpts from.
Michael RyanHOST
So as most of you know that have listened to the podcast for a while, you know near the end of our episodes now, we read about Nav Canada's Canadian Civil Aviation Anomalies, all the weird stuff that happened the week before.
Michael RyanHOST
What I'm about to say, that will be included in today's Civil Aviation Anomalies podcast.
Michael RyanHOST
But it was kind of unusual, so I just wanted to mention it at the top of the show also.

During the return flight to Ottawa Gatineau, while descending to 4,500 feet, the pilot declared an emergency following a fuel starvation and landed in a field at around 20 nautical miles northwest of Ottawa Gatineau.
speaker_3NARRATOR
The aircraft was seriously damaged, but the occupants were not injured.
speaker_3NARRATOR
On October 2, NAV Canada updated a report that they originally received on July 7, 2023.
speaker_3NARRATOR
An American Airlines Boeing 777-200 flying from London Heathrow United Kingdom to Los Angeles International Airport reported hitting an opaque balloon that was 25 to 30 feet in diameter over Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan.
Elliot DaigneaultHOST
And if it's international, it's $34.42. Then after that, you got to tack on the airport improvement fees, which is anywhere between $35 to $45.
Elliot DaigneaultHOST
Then you have NAV Canada fee, which is up to $20.
Elliot DaigneaultHOST
Then after that, just nobody talks about, you got to tack on the federal excise tax on aviation fuel, plus the carbon pricing.
Elliot DaigneaultHOST
Yes, industrial carbon tax tacked into it.
Wade BourassaGUEST
Got the ball rolling.
Wade BourassaGUEST
Talked to, uh, Nav Canada, Transport Canada, and got the ball rolling and it's pretty cool.
Jack ShanleyHOST
Wow.
Wade BourassaGUEST
It's pretty neat.
Nil KöksalHOST
And, you know, drone operation, and certainly we have a drone team, um, for, for news gathering as well, but there's quite a rigorous process and approvals and permits and all of that.
Nil KöksalHOST
Loblaw says they obtained all required permits, including through NAV Canada and ground space approval secured through Fort York.
Nil KöksalHOST
Uh, their statement doesn't mention the city of Toronto, but, but do you have questions for the city as well here?
Sean GalbraithGUEST
Yeah, I mean, I think anybody who, uh, anybody who gave permission for an advertising drone swarm out of Fort York maybe should not be in a position to be allowing those things in the future, 'cause they show clear lack of judgment in what, uh, what the down, you know, downtown Toronto airspace is cl- is missing.
Bettina FordGUEST
i do know in the community this week we have visitors from all around the world plain people, as we affectionately call them, who've come to be a part of this, but also partners, organizations and agencies.
Bettina FordGUEST
I was speaking yesterday with some executives from NAV Canada who've come to be here as part of the commemoration and remembrance.
Bettina FordGUEST
And if people don't know,
Brian CallahanHOST
yeah, the NAV Canada, of course, the connection with air traffic controllers, just for people who aren't aware of, not in that world,
Bettina FordGUEST
Yes, absolutely.
Bettina FordGUEST
And in Gander, we certainly are.
Bettina FordGUEST
I mean, we have about 400 employees with NAV Canada.
Bettina FordGUEST
And what the air traffic controllers did that day in managing that traffic in the sky, the highways in the sky, it was something that none of them could ever have envisioned.
James CousineauHOST
Many of them, and when I talk about them, I'm talking about air traffic controllers, were trying to get information and find out what was going on simultaneously while they too were hearing the news of what was happening.
James CousineauHOST
When we look at it, Transport Canada and Nav Canada, the country's air navigation service provider here in Canada, made a decision within hours.
James CousineauHOST
Flights that couldn't reach the United States would be redirected to Canadian airports from Vancouver to Halifax and everywhere in between.
James CousineauHOST
It was the beginning of what became known as Operation Yellow Ribbon.
18 MINS LATER
James CousineauHOST
As these measures were being imposed, some 500 airplanes from around the world were en route to the United States.
James CousineauHOST
Planes with enough fuel were told to return to their airport of origin, and the rest were diverted to airports across Canada.
James CousineauHOST
Fearing that the attacks may not be over, and worried that other planes could be turned into destructive missiles, Transport Canada instructed Nav Canada, the agency that handles air traffic control, not to redirect planes to large urban areas such as Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal, unless absolutely necessary.
James CousineauHOST
Over the next few hours, more than 200 planes were diverted to Canadian airports.
Deb HuttonHOST
Proper permissions were obtained before the swarm launched.
Deb HuttonHOST
The spokesperson said, including permissions from Fort York and airspace approvals via NAV Canada.
Deb HuttonHOST
So I did a little more digging.
Deb HuttonHOST
That's the statement from a shopper's drug mart, PC Health.
13 MINS LATER
Deb HuttonHOST
Proper permissions were obtained before the swarm launched.
Deb HuttonHOST
I thought that was an interesting phrase.
Deb HuttonHOST
The swarm launched, the spokesperson said, for shoppers, including permission from Fort York, which is the area in which it was actually shown, and airspace approvals via NAV Canada.
Deb HuttonHOST
Here's a text.
TowerHOST
When NATS loses capacity, oceanic traffic does not stop, but it gets complicated.
TowerHOST
The North Atlantic tracks, the organized route system we abbreviate as NITOTs, are co-managed by NATS and NAV Canada.
TowerHOST
If NATS cannot accept inbound oceanic traffic, aircraft entering eastbound tracks toward the UK need to be rerouted or held.
TowerHOST
Controllers on both sides of the Atlantic begin working workarounds.
