Transport Canada Suspends Skyward Aviation Ltd.'s Air Operator Certificate

News Release

No. PNR 001/05For release - January 31, 2005
WINNIPEG — Transport Canada today announced the suspension of Skyward Aviation Ltd.'s air operator certificate, effective immediately. Without an air operator certificate, a company cannot provide commercial air services in Canada.
This action is based on concerns with the company's ability to exercise operational control, which includes proper record keeping, training and aircraft maintenance.
Transport Canada has taken this action in the interest of public safety because the Department identified safety deficiencies during an audit of the company. Today's suspension does not preclude any further regulatory action at a later date.
The Department will continue to work with Skyward Aviation Ltd. The company will need to demonstrate that it meets all applicable rules and regulations before its air operator certificate will be re-instated.
