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
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
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.
