Part II of the bill amends the Aeronautics Act to give the Airworthiness Investigative
Authority powers to investigate aviation accidents or incidents involving civilians and aircraft or aeronautical installations operated by or on behalf of the Department of National Defence, the Canadian Forces or a visiting force. In other words, instead of letting the Transportation Safety Board of Canada investigate when a military aircraft is involved, the investigation could be done by an authority under the Department of National Defence, which is therefore not required to release its report, as is the case for the Transportation Safety Board of
...[+++]Canada.
Autrement dit, au lieu de laisser le Bureau de la sécurité des transports du Canada enquêter si un aéronef militaire est impliqué, cette enquête pourrait être faite par une instance qui dépend du ministère de la Défense nationale et qui n'est donc pas tenue de rendre public son rapport, comme c'est le cas du Bureau de la sécurité des transports du Canada.
