Guest 47yrLowTimer Posted February 12, 2012 Report Posted February 12, 2012 Can a Canadian with Canadian license fly a US registered machine legally in Canada for hire? I've searched the CAR's and but can't find a definitive answer. Quote
Guest 47yrLowTimer Posted February 12, 2012 Report Posted February 12, 2012 That's what I thought. Just found out my paper FAA cert of 22 years is no longer valid as of March 2010. Never needed it in 22 years & now Murphy strikes again. Time to plead with the FAA Gods Quote
Over-Talk Posted February 12, 2012 Report Posted February 12, 2012 YES. No FAA license required. The crew must be employed by the Canadian Operator, i.e. a Canadian citizen (or on a visa) and holding a Canadian license. The Canadian Operator must meet a bunch of other requirements here..... http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/civilaviation/regserv/cars/part2-subpart3-1004.htm and more instructions how to do it here..... http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/civilaviation/publications/tp13090-chapter5-state-2106.htm#5.1 I saw an N registered ship fly over yesterday, piloted by a Canadian friend of mine..... all quite legal.

Helilog56 Posted February 12, 2012 Report Posted February 12, 2012 An important part of the equation is what the insurance underwriter requirements are. For us you must have a FAA license and type endorsed, with medical naturally. Quote
Guest 47yrLowTimer Posted February 13, 2012 Report Posted February 13, 2012 Thanks for all the help guys. Pretty sure it's US operator contracted to log in Canada. We'll see how the cards fall tomorrow. I don't hold much hope that I can get a new & improved FAA cert. in 5 days. Quote
