Ehsan’s journey through Canadian Aviation Law has been both comprehensive and distinguished. Even before completing his Juris Doctor at the University of British Columbia, Faculty of Law, Ehsan delved deeper into the complexities of aviation law. Before commencing his studies at the McGill Institute of Air and Space Law as a visiting student, focusing on private international air law and airline business law, his favourite book in law school was the Treatise on Air-aeronautical Law, (Matte, 1974). Prior to attending law school, Ehsan obtained a B.Sc. in Technical Management, summa cum laude, from Embry Riddle Aeronautical University. Ehsan also holds a Diploma of Airline and Flight Operations from the British Columbia Institute of Technology and is also the holder of a Canadian commercial pilot license with a multi-engine IFR rating.
In his professional capacity, Ehsan has become a trusted advisor in Canadian aviation law, guiding both public and private entities within the aviation sector through the complexities of commercial transactions and regulatory frameworks. Ehsan is also extensively involved with business aircraft transactions, and his experience includes the negotiation of agreements pertaining to aircraft purchases and dispositions, aircraft and engine maintenance and overhaul, engine and parts purchase, lease, consignment and sale, and aircraft interiors procurement, where he has represented clients on both the buy-side and the sell-side. Ehsan also currently acts for several Canadian lessors of aircraft, acting as transactional counsel on domestic and international aircraft leasing operations. His representation of clients in negotiations related to aircraft purchases, sales, maintenance, leasing, and interior procurement highlights his adeptness in both the strategic and operational aspects of aviation law in Canada.
Ehsan’s contribution to the commercial air travel sector is noteworthy, with a significant portion of his practice dedicated to assisting clients in navigating the regulatory environment. His role in licensing new foreign air operators with Transport Canada and drafting tariffs and terms for air carriers underlines his comprehensive understanding of the industry’s legal requirements.

Favorite Business Aircraft:
The first business aircraft Ehsan had the pleasure of flying on was the Bombardier Challenger 300. He accompanied a client on their way to the Bombardier facility in Montreal to assess an upgrade to a Bombardier Challenger 350. Within less than 50 minutes of arriving at the airport in Toronto, Ehsan was touring the Bombardier assembly line in Montreal. His dream aircraft became the Bombardier Challenger 300/350/3500 family. Business aircrafts are the most advanced form of time machines that humans have built to date, and for Ehsan, the Bombardier Challenger 3500 represents the most functional aircraft and best value for Ehsan’s ongoing missions.

Bill Clark: Legal Counsel
Bill is a distinguished Canadian aviation lawyer with a focus that is uniquely dedicated to the commercial and regulatory legal frameworks of aviation and travel companies. With a practice that spans several decades, Bill’s expertise in aviation law has made him a crucial figure for both domestic and international entities operating within Canada’s aviation sector.
Starting his career by providing essential legal advice to air carriers serving remote parts of Canada, Bill’s early work with bush pilots laid the foundation for his deep understanding of the aviation industry’s legal landscape. His practice evolved significantly when he began advising foreign air carriers eager to establish routes to Toronto, Canada’s burgeoning economic capital. At the time, only two foreign carriers served Toronto, but under Bill’s legal guidance, numerous foreign air carriers commenced services to Toronto, with the city’s international airport growing to host the second-largest number of foreign carriers in North America.
Bill’s contributions to aviation law in Canada are extensive. He has assisted numerous foreign air carriers from their initial operations in Canada, covering charter and offline services, through to complex bilateral negotiations with the Government of Canada for scheduled services. His advisory role extends beyond international airlines to include domestic operators and entities in related sectors, such as ground handlers, parts suppliers, engine overhaulers, and flight training schools, among others.
A pivotal aspect of Bill’s aviation law practice focuses on the executive aircraft segment, where he has served on the Canadian Business Aviation Association (CBAA) board for over a decade, having been recognized by the CBAA with an Honorary Lifetime Membership award in 2015. Bill is also an active member of several committees of the National Business Aviation Association (NBAA). His expertise is also recognized through his long-standing role as the designated legal counsel for the Canadian Association of Tour Operators (CATO) since its inception.
Bill’s reputation as a leading expert in aviation law is further solidified by his frequent participation at key industry conferences, where he shares his knowledge on the Canadian aviation regulatory framework, aircraft security, and travel industry regulations. His commitment to the field of aviation law has not only shaped the industry but has also provided a foundation for its growth and development in Canada.
After graduating from the University of Western Ontario with honors in Business Administration and from the University of Toronto’s Faculty of Law, Bill started his legal career when he was called to the Ontario Bar in 1971. Before founding Clark & Company (now YYZlaw) in 1999, he practiced at Nobbs, Woods & Clark, continuing a legacy of dedicated aviation law practice that began in the mid-1950s.
Favorite Business Aircraft:
Bill’s aviation dreams have evolved alongside his illustrious career. Initially, he aspired to pilot a Cessna 206 on floats to his summer home north of Toronto. In more recent years, his dream business aircraft has evolved into the market-leading Bombardier Global 7500, a reflection of the market leadership he has shown to the aviation industry over the decades. This transition from a modest bush plane to one of the most sophisticated business jets on the market today highlights Bill’s journey and contributions to aviation law and the broader aviation industry.
