The AMO certificate verifies that Babcock has met the regulatory requirements set by Transport Canada, and gives Babcock authorisation to perform maintenance on aircraft, avionics, instruments and structures.

The AMO has been opened on the following aircraft types:

  • Beech King Air
  • Canadair CL 215
  • Canadair CL 415/215T
  • Cessna Citation 560
  • Gulfstream Turbo Commander

Babcock earned the AMO certificate following an application process that began in the autumn of 2019 and culminated with representatives from Transport Canada performing an on-site audit of its aviation facilities in Winnipeg.
