The introduction of rational performance requirements governing the operation of civil transport aircraft has given rise to a need for accurate and detailed information on obstructions in the vicinity of aerodromes. This paper states the origin and nature of the requirement and describes a survey technique, a particular application of terrestrial photogrammetry, which was used to meet it.In the United Kingdom and in other member countries of the International Civil Aviation Organisation considerable progress has been made towards the rationalisation of performance requirements governing the operation of civil transport aircraft.

This paper deals with the topic of Brexit, and its objective is a complex description of the new regulatory framework of civil air transport in United Kingdom. The methods like description, analysis and synpaper were applied on extensive and diverse sources of information, e.g. case laws, regulations, studies or expert articles. The paper introduces a comprehensive set of facts that clarify the act of withdrawal of the United Kingdom from the European Union. The explanation of the new regulatory framework of civil air transport for the United Kingdom, and its impact on the United Kingdom and the European Union, brings contribution to the students of Department of Air Transport. The significance of the work is mainly in the timeliness of the topic, that could subsequently be used as an educational material in the field of air transport within the international economic relations.

Operational Failure

Abstract Helicopter accidents cause many fatalities, and their avoidance is a major area of work for Civil Aviation safety authorities around the World. This paper uses helicopter accident data from the United Kingdom between 1986 and 2005 for 566 accidents and from New Zealand between 1996 and 2006 for 230 accidents to analyse helicopter accidents according to five categories of causes: airworthiness failure (engine); airworthiness failure (non-engine), operational failure, maintenance failure and mixed failure (i.e. operational and airworthiness combined). Factors associated with accidents, e.g. the engine types and weights of the helicopters involved; the nature of the operations and the phase of flight of the helicopter are also analysed. Operational failures were further analysed by Human Factors Analysis and Classification Scheme (HFACS) and airworthiness failures by a logical scheme of helicopter components. The results indicate that operational failures, especially due to unsafe acts, are the major cause of accidents in both countries followed by airworthiness causes. Light single piston helicopters are by far the major group associated with accidents in both countries, with few accidents for twin turbine helicopters. The majority of accidents were in non-public operations with few in public operations and in both countries, the cruise/flight/circuit phase has the largest number of accidents. Further analyses indicated statistically significant associations: type of helicopter and the cause of accidents; type of helicopter and the phase of flight; cause of accidents and nature of flights; cause of accidents and phase of flights; training flights and inadequate supervision; landing and procedural error and cruise and attention failure.

The ninth session of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) Assembly was held in Montreal from May 31 through June 13, 1955.1 Representatives from 53 contracting states, and observers from the Federal Republic of Germany, the UN, and the International Labor Organization were present at the session at which Brigadier C. Stephen Booth (Canada) was elected President. Following statements by various delegations, the delegates considered the provisional agenda consisting of eighteen items; the first seventeen were adopted without discussion, but a debate developed on the last item, sponsored by the United Kingdom, which proposed that various amendments involving changes in the higher direction of ICAO be made in the ICAO Convention. It was pointed out that if this item were included in the agenda, Rule 10 (d) requiring that proposals for an amendment to the Convention be submitted to member states at least 90 days before the opening of the session would have to be suspended. The United Kingdom representative declared that his delegation was more interested in having a review of the future organization and methods of ICAO take place than in proposing specific amendments to the Convention; therefore, if it were the general wish of the delegates, he would withdraw his request for the discussion of specific amendments on the understanding that the Assembly would take up such a review under the agenda item dealing with the working methods of the Council. This proposal was unanimously adopted by the Assembly, after which the Assembly unanimously approved a proposal of France, the United Kingdom and United States to add the following item to the agenda: “The application of the Federal Republic of Germany for membership in the Organization”.

The seventeenth session of the Council of the International Civil Aviation Organization opened in Montreal on September 9, 1952 and concluded on December 5. The Council sanctioned the holding of a special frequency meeting to consider certain problems associated with frequency assignments in the European-Mediterranean region in Paris in October and decided that the first ICAO Air Navigation Conference should be convened in Montreal in February 1953. After discussion and exchange of views, the draft agenda for the 1953 ICAO Assembly was referred to the Air Navigation Commission, the Air Trans-port Committee, the Finance Committee, and the Committee on Joint Support of Air Navigation Services for their consideration and report. After withdrawal by the French government of its invitation to hold the seventh session of the Assembly in France, the Council accepted the invitation of the United Kingdom and decided to hold the seventh session in Brighton, England, opening on June 16, 1953.

Security Standards

The implementation of international and national civil aviation must refer to applicable international and national legal norms to ensure the safety of passengers, flight crew, aircraft, and goods transported. To meet safety and security standards, each country must regulate flight security programs that refer to the regulations of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). Indonesia and the UK must meet these standards in dealing with perpetrators of air rage. Indonesia and the United Kingdom are the countries that participated in the ratification of the Convention on Offices and Certain Other Acts Committed on Board Aircraft, commonly called The Tokyo Convention 1963. Both countries have a legal obligation to implement the convention in their national law. A distinctive feature between Indonesia and the United Kingdom makes the implementation of the Tokyo Convention 1963 in that country different but still has the same goal of ensuring flight safety and security.
