NDA Supplement
NDA Supplement
INTRODUCTION
This supplement has been prepared as the basis for Annual Recurrent Training Program for Flight Crew, which
includes a number of general topics. This training course is delivered via ‘distance’ and is hosted online on the
Compass internal website, and is to be completed through self-study.
Please review the 2014 Supplement. There is a comprehensive multiple choice exam to be completed online; the
exam pass mark is 80%. The exam is open book, and is based entirely of the material in this document, or other
company manuals that are referenced (i.e., Calm Air Operations Manual) which you already have access to.
Arctic Radio
Arctic Radio operates from the North Bay FIC (Ontario). It provides FISE and emergency communication to
aircraft operating in the Northwest Territories and Nunavut and in the vicinity of the ADIZ. It also provides radar
position information (latitude and longitude, bearing and distance, altitude and ground speed) upon pilot request.
In the event FMS (GNSS) or an NDB (to get a bearing from) becomes unavailable the Astro Compass must be
used to determine True Heading.
