The Agreement outlines the system under which the United States provides passenger preclearance services at Canadian airports. It gives limited authority to U. S. preclearance officers to perform customs, immigration, public health, food inspection and plant and animal health processing to clear travellers and their goods at Canadian airports, for entry into the United States. It is a reciprocal agreement according the same authority to Canadian preclearance officers, should Canada put them in place at U. S. airports in the future. The Agreement is implemented in accordance with Canada's Precleance Act. 1, record 1, English, - Agreement%20on%20Air%20Transport%20Preclearance

L'Accord expose le système en vertu duquel les États-Unis offrent aux passagers des services de précontrôle dans les aéroports canadiens. Il accorde un pouvoir limité aux contrôleurs américains pour effectuer dans les aéroports canadiens le précontrôle en matière de douane, d'immigration, de santé publique, d'inspection des aliments et de santé des plantes et des animaux à l'égard des voyageurs et de leurs biens à destination des États-Unis. Il s'agit d'un accord réciproque, qui conférerait le même pouvoir aux contrôleurs canadiens si le Canada mettait en place des contrôleurs dans les aéroports américains dans l'avenir. L'Accord est mis en œuvre conformément à la Loi sur le précontrôle du Canada. 1, record 1, French, - Accord%20relatif%20au%20pr%C3%A9contr%C3%B4le%20dans%20le%20domaine%20du%20transport%20a%C3%A9rien

General aviation used for business transportation requires near Category I approach capabilities for all runway ends at airports capable of accepting typical business aircraft, including the new category of Microjet(such as the Eclipse) Air Traffic Control infrastructure must be capable of serving increases in the number of general aviation aircraft used to serve business travel needs. While it is difficult to project the growth in absolute terms, it is reasonable to expect that aircraft volume will increase about five percent per year for the foreseable future. 2, record 2, English, - business%20transportation
