To secure landing permits from Transport Canada, operators must file a detailed application at least 24 hours before the flight. This application should include several essential documents, such as:

1. Aircraft Registration Certificate (ARC): Essential for verifying the legal registration of the aircraft.
2. Airworthiness Certificate (AWC): Confirms that the aircraft meets the required airworthiness criteria.
3. Air Operator’s Certificate (AOC): Mandatory for operators involved in commercial aviation services.
4. Insurance Certificate (IC): Provides proof of liability insurance for the aircraft, covering third-party claims and possibly other risks.
5. Crew Documentation (CD): Includes necessary items such as pilot licenses, medical certificates, crew passports, and any required visas based on crew nationality.
6. Flight Plan (FP): A detailed outline specifying entry and exit points, scheduled times and dates, and the airports for both departure and arrival.
7. Noise Compliance Certificate (NCC): Validates that the aircraft adheres to the noise regulations established by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO).
8. Passenger Manifest (PL): For commercial flights, this document lists all passengers and includes necessary customs declarations for each individual.
9. Additional Permits (AP): May be required for:
Charter Operations (CO): Foreign commercial operators may need specific authorization.
Cargo Transport (CF): Permits for transporting hazardous materials may be necessary, depending on the cargo type.
Humanitarian Missions or Special Events (HM/SE).
10. Security Approvals (SC): Extra security clearances may be needed for flights involving dignitaries or other special situations.

Additionally, operators must adhere to Canadian Aviation Regulations (CARs) and any relevant bilateral agreements. For flights involving the transportation of dangerous goods, extra documentation and approvals will be required. The permit will outline specific conditions or restrictions, including approved landing airports and compliance with noise abatement procedures. Meeting all these requirements is crucial for ensuring the successful approval of the landing permit application.
