TRANSPORT CANADA SUSPENDS AIR OPERATOR CERTIFICATE OF DAVID WILLIAMSON ATLANTIC SCHOOL OF SKYDIVING

News Release

No. A006/04 For release September 10, 2004 MONCTON - Transport Canada today announced the suspension of David Williamson, doing business as Atlantic School of Skydiving, effective September 13, 2004 to October 27, 2004. This punitive suspension was issued as a result of the company operating without a Chief Pilot, without liability insurance and for failing to retain training records. The company was also assessed an administrative penalty of $500. Transport Canada has taken this action following a series of inspection findings. David Williamson operates a specialty air service using two light aircraft under day and night visual flight rules providing lifts for parachutists and parachute training at the Atlantic School of Skydiving at the Waterville/Kings County Municipal Airport in Nova Scotia. The company currently meets all applicable rules and regulations to hold an Air Operator Certificate. It will be able to resume its operations once the punitive penalty has been served. Transport Canada will continue to monitor the Atlantic School of Skydiving as part of its ongoing oversight of the transportation industry to verify that the company adheres to all applicable safety standards and regulations. - 30 - Contact: Maurice Landry Communications, Moncton Transport Canada (506) 851-7314 Transport Canada is online at www.tc.gc.ca.
