Line 1, Emergency Underwater Breathing Apparatus (EUBA)

Line 2, Life Vests
Transport Canada - Aircraft Services Directorate (TC-ASD) is operating a number of aircraft (rotorcraft and fixed wing) over water for extended periods of time, and sometimes at a great distance from shore. Life vests are necessary for the crew and passengers for safety and survivability, and are required as per Canadian Aviation Regulations (CARs).
TC-ASD operates different models of helicopters and crews are carrying out very demanding tasks on board helicopters. For example, vertical reference operations (VRO) are being conducted from either side,depending on the helicopter type. These tasks require deep concentration, and extreme freedom for body and head movement while flying. Life vests are being worn by the TC ASD crew and passengers for extended periods of time.
Objective
Given the above,TC-ASD is looking to acquire 250 life vests and 60 Emergency Under Water Breathing Apparatus (EUBA) to replace the current life vests and EUBAs used by the crew and passengers on board TC-ASD operated aircraft.
