AAIR REPORTING REQUIRMENTSREQUIREMENTS
...
In response to requests from the Aviation community, Transport Canada cancelled the CCI procedure and re-wrote the maintenance requirements for Canadian aircraft. On April 1, 1989 the CCI Report was replaced by the Annual Airworthiness Information Report (AAIR).
The AAIR is was to be submitted annually to the local Transport Canada Regional Office within 14 days of the AAIR due date. (Now replaced by Web submission - or - all mailings go to NCR)
This involved a mainframe database (CAIS) which generated AAIR forms for mailing on a weekly basis (using the anniversary of each aircraft’s certificate of airworthiness date)
...
ensure accurate and thorough distribution of airworthiness information (ADs, CASAs etc.. ) to the aircraft owners,
monitor the size, airworthiness status and activity of the Canadian aircraft fleet,
calculate accident and incident statistics, and
planning and performance measurement of the National Air Transportation System.
Publication of an Annual flight hours statistical report by Statistics Canada. This task was later transferred to the TC Aviation Statistics Centre for the preparation of the Civil Aircraft Activity In Canada publication (TP-2468) and to develop aircraft accident and incident statistics for use by the Transportation Safety Board of Canada (TSB).
