International Commission for Air Navigation - setup by the Paris Air Convention in 1919 |
|
The Chicago Conference |
1944: 52 of 55 allied and neutral countries discussed post-war aviation producing 96 articles and the Provisional International Civil Aviation Organisation (PICAO) |
|
ICAO |
International Civil Aviation Organisation - 04/04/1947 came into existence |
|
ICAO - Aims and Objectives |
1. To forster the development of civil aviation 2. To encourage desirable features in aircraft design 3. To develop standards for airports, airways and aeronautical facilities 4. To ensure to the public, safe, regular, efficient and economic air transport 5. To prevent waste by unreasonable competition 6. To respect the rights of states and to prevent discrimination 7. To supervise the requirements of the convention, as laid down in Annexes 8. To disseminate worthwhile knowledge and experience 9. To facilitate international air travel by reducing irksome formalities and red tape. |

Freedoms Of The Air (Cabotage) |
1. The freedom of civil aircraft to fly over foreign countries as long as they do not land; 2. The freedom of civil aircraft to make non-traffic landings, for refueling or overhaul only, in foreign territory; 3. Freedom to transport passengers and cargo from an aircraft's homeland to other countries; 4. Freedom to transport passengers and cargo from other countries to an aircraft's homeland; 5. Freedom to carry air traffic between countries other than the aircraft's homeland. Principal: automatic right of transit and of emergency landing |
