File No. M4211/H211-2

Hawkeye Charter Service, Inc. (hereinafter the applicant) has applied to the Canadian Transportation Agency (hereinafter the Agency) for a licence to operate the service set out in the title. The application was received on October 4, 2004.

In order to obtain a licence, the applicant must, inter alia, establish to the satisfaction of the Agency that it holds a Canadian aviation document and that it has the prescribed liability insurance in respect of the service to be provided under the licence and that it holds a document issued by its government that is equivalent to a non-scheduled international licence, as set out in subparagraphs 73(1)(a)(ii) and (iii) and paragraph 73(2)(a) of the Canada Transportation Act (hereinafter the CTA).

By letter dated October 8, 2004, Agency staff advised the applicant that its application was incomplete and outlined the missing information and documentation.

By letter dated January 12, 2005, Agency staff advised the applicant that the requested information and documentation had not been filed. The applicant did not reply to this letter.

The Agency has considered the material filed to date in support of the application and notes that the applicant does not hold a valid Canadian aviation document and does not have the prescribed liability insurance coverage. The Agency is therefore not satisfied that the applicant meets the requirements of subparagraphs 73(1)(a)(ii) and (iii) of the CTA. Accordingly, the application by Hawkeye Charter Service, Inc. is hereby denied.
