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 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).
