1 An Introduction to Lake Central Air Service Our Past, The Present and What We Can Do For You LCAS

2 INTRODUCTION For over 45 years Lake Central Air Services (LCAS) has built a strong reputation for quality service in aircraft maintenance, parts manufacture, aircraft modifications, and customer support. We have a very long history of designing modifications such as externally mounted research equipment interfaces, aerodynamic performance improvements, increased fuel capacity modifications, avionics and instrument panel re-designs, and in the design and manufacture of Airworthiness Directive correction modifications. LCAS

3 LCAS is Transport Canada approved to manufacture aircraft parts and certify aerodynamic products. Over the years we have gradually worked into the field of performing special purpose installations of surveillance equipment for land and sea, atmospheric monitoring and geophysical survey modifications to aircraft. LCAS can design, engineer, manufacture, install, and approve survey modifications to your aircraft with our in-house Transport Canada Designated Airworthiness Representative (DAR). LCAS

4 LCAS currently hold FAA, EASA, Canadian, and Brazilian Supplemental Type Certificates (STC’s) for modifications covering over 80 different types of aircraft and helicopter makes and models plus many serialized STC’s for other less popular fixed and rotary wing aircraft.
