US Threatens to Decertify Canadian Aircraft Over Gulfstream Jet Dispute

The United States has issued one of its most dramatic aviation threats in modern history, warning that it may revoke certification for all Canadian-manufactured aircraft and impose 50 percent import tariffs. The trigger is Canada’s refusal to certify several high-end Gulfstream business jets, a move Washington claims unfairly blocks U.S. aircraft from the Canadian market. But this dispute goes far beyond business jets. Aircraft certification has long been treated as a safety-driven, apolitical process essential to global aviation trust. By tying certification to trade retaliation, the confrontation risks grounding aircraft, disrupting airlines, and setting a dangerous precedent where aviation safety becomes a geopolitical bargaining tool. In this video, we break down what aircraft certification really means, why Gulfstream jets are at the center of the conflict, how decertification could impact operators and manufacturers on both sides of the border, and why this dispute could reshape global aviation regulation itself. #AviationNews #USCanada #TradeWar #AircraftCertification #Gulfstream #AerospaceIndustry #Geopolitics #AviationSafety #Tariffs #BusinessJets #GlobalAviation #AltitudeAddicts Be a Member for exclusive privileges - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCviEFTf1xIPKsjmyF_zvFug/join Twitter : https://x.com/AltitudeAddicts Website: https://www.altitudeaddicts.com
