Toronto Area Control Centre


Toronto Area Control Center is one of seven area control centers in Canada operated by Nav Canada. The Toronto Area Control Centre is based near Toronto Pearson International Airport in Mississauga, Ontario.
From the Toronto Area Control Centre, air traffic controllers provide en route and terminal control services to aircraft in the Toronto Flight Information Region. The Toronto FIR airspace covers most of Southern Ontario, Central Ontario, parts of Eastern Ontario, and parts of northwestern Michigan. To the east are the air traffic control centres of Montreal and Boston; to the south are the Minneapolis, Cleveland, and New York air traffic control centres; to the west is the Winnipeg control centre.

Aerodrome classes

The Toronto ACC assumes control of the following classes of airports:
Class C
Class D
Class E
This FIR contains several Class G aerodromes that are in uncontrolled airspace and clearances are required to enter or leave controlled airspace.
Airports under these classes include:

Peripheral station frequencies

Within each FIR, there are transmitter sites that allow the relay of distant communication from aircraft back to the ACC. These links are called a peripheral station. They re-transmit the voice and data communication over high speed data links between the ACC and the remote transmitter.
