Individual Members of the AME Association of Ontario qualify for a total of 20 Member Benefits Examples of Individual Member Benefits:

• *15% Discount at Work Authority Retail stores across Canada
• *10% Discount at Mark's retail stores across Canada
• *Profession rate home, auto, aviation insurance rates from Sound Insurance Brokers
• *Your Corporate Membership fee is 100% CRA tax deductible.
• *Every membership in the AME Association of Ontario includes your Membership dues in the Aircraft Maintenance Engineers of Canada (AMEC/TEAC), our National Association of Aircraft Maintenance Engineers.

AMEC/TEAC is our DIRECT line to Transport Canada on issues that affect aviation, aircraft maintenance and AMEs. We are in constant contact with Transport Canada and have effected many TCCA policies by our lobbying.

One result of the lobbying power of AMEC/TEAC is the TCCA issuance of NCR-046-2021 EXEMPTION FROM SUBSECTION 403.05(1) OF THE CANADIAN AVIATION REGULATIONS in response to the Covid Pandemic, which allowed the recency period to be extended an additional six (6) months in order for holders of a valid AME licence to retain the privileges of their licence under the CARs while they gain the required six months of experience.

This is just one example of what a National Association can do for AMEs from coast to coast to coast.
