tigers2007 Posted April 13, 2019 Report Share Posted April 13, 2019 Agree on that. Have gotten $25 Canadian ATC bills for essentially 2 transmissions, in freakin Michigan no less (USA). In the U.P. the far eastern section is under Canadian ATC Services. Tom Tom I hope that wasn’t charged to you by YYZ Center when you came and picked me up. I owe you some lunches and dinners. I used to talk to them all the time and they never billed me. Maybe because you’re climbing too fast?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can fly as much as you want in a quarter and you still pay the same flat fee, which would explain why you don't always get one if the flights were in the same quarter. I believe that currently the quarterly charge for aircraft under three metric tonnes MTOW is C$16.80. We Canadian owners pay C$67.20/year.

tigers2007 Posted April 14, 2019 Report Share Posted April 14, 2019 Do Yankee-registered aircraft have to pay the fee even if they never cross into Her Majesty’s Airspace? My former U.S. base is under YYZ’s control. I didn’t think we had to pay unless we actually were landing or taking off from a Canadian airport.

milotron Posted April 14, 2019 Report Share Posted April 14, 2019 I only think you pay if you land, but not certain of this. Note that certain airports have additional fees if you use their terminal or approaches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohdub Posted April 14, 2019 Report Share Posted April 14, 2019 Being Canadian I'm not sure, I just pay the annual fee, but my understanding was that foreign registered GA only get billed if they land in Canada.

It was years ago, so maybe it was a mistake ..... or has changed. Either way...didn't impress me to pay for Canadian ATC service and I never left my country.

tigers2007 Posted April 15, 2019 Report Share Posted April 15, 2019 I’m going to start invoicing Air Canada, WestJet, and Air Transat for overflying the Upper Peninsula all the time if they’re gonna blind bill you like that.

Tom The NavCan fees are not applicable to US aircraft flying between US airports even though they transit Canadian airspace or are handled by Canadian ATC. Fight it next time.
