The desire of many new states to have international air services of their own in an era of high-cost aircraft is imposing great pressure on traditional concepts of nationality and registration of aircraft. It has long been held that civil aircraft must have a nationality, that they must be registered in a state and that they must have the nationality of the state of registry. As the plan of the new states concerned is to have the international air services in question furnished through international operating agencies established by them and owning aircraft registered on other than a national basis, it is not surprising that this plan is currently the object of serious study. In particular, the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) has established a legal subcommittee to study problems of nationality and registration of aircraft of international operating agencies arising in relation to the application of Article 77 of the Convention on International Civil Aviation, opened for signature at Chicago on December 7, 1944.

The Assembly of the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) held its fourteenth session in Rome from August 21 through September 15, 1962, under the presidency of Dr. E. Ortona (Italy). The Assembly adopted measures to assure that the development and use of supersonic civil aircraft would not be detrimental either to the public or to international civil aviation. The ICAO Council was to work toward international agreement on the operational characteristics of critical importance in insuring that supersonic aircraft could fit into the same environment as subsonic aircraft, and also on the problems of noise near airfields, sonic boom, and radiation hazards. A second object of Council concern would be the assessment of the operating requirements of the supersonic aircraft, so that international agreement could also be reached on the ground facilities and services required and the places where these would have to be installed.
