Shopping on line can be easy, simple and save you lots of money. It can also take a lot of your time, frustrate you, and result in unwanted purchases. Now the same can be said for regular high street shopping, but with the vast opportunity presented by the Internet it will pay you to spend a few minutes reading this and understanding how to better optimize your Aviation Authority shopping experience:
1. Compare - without doubt the biggest advantage that the Aviation Authority offers shoppers today is the ability to compare thousands of Aviation Authority at a time. This is a great thing, but not necessarily all the time! Too much can be daunting at times so take advantage of the great comparison sites and where possible let them do the hard work for you.
2. Research - if it has been said it will be on the internet. Ignorance is no longer a justifiable reason for buying the wrong thing. Take the time to research in detail everything that you could possible want to know about
3. Testimonials - don't know anybody that has bought a Aviation Authority? Wrong! If the Aviation Authority is good the internet will let you know. Use the Internet as a friend and get testimonials before you buy.
4. Questions - Got a question about Aviation Authority then search the Forums, FAQ's, Blogs etc. Don't be afraid to ask .....
5. Reputation - Never heard of the company selling Aviation Authority? Don't worry, no reason why you should know every company in the world, but you know someone that does! Use the internet to find out what people are saying about Aviation Authority and build up a picture of their reputation for sales, returns, customer service, delivery etc.
6. Returns - still worried that even after all of the above your Aviation Authority wont be what you want? Check out the returns policy. There is so much competition now that someone, somewhere is bound to offer the terms that you are comfortable with.
7. Feedback - happy with your Aviation Authority then let people know, after all you are depending on others people input in your buying decision, so why not give a little back.
8. Security - check for the yellow padlock on the Aviation Authority site before you buy, and the s after http:/ /i.e. https:// = a secure site
9. Contact - got a question about Aviation Authority, or want to leave a comment then check out the sites contact page. Reputable companies have them and respond.
10. Payment - ready to pay for your Aviation Authority, then use your credit card or PayPal! Be aware of companies that don't accept them, there may be genuine reasons but given the huge amount of choice you have when buying online there is no reason at all not to buy via credit card or PayPal.
International civil aviation is governed by the Convention on International Civil Aviation (commonly known as the
Chicago Convention). Under this Convention, the
International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO), a specialised agency of the United Nations, sets the minimum Standards and Recommended Practices for international civil aviation. These standards are contained in 18 Annexes to the Convention. Individual States remain responsible for regulating their aviation industries but have to take into account the requirements of the Convention and the minimum standards established by ICAO.
The Annexes are:
- Annex 1 deals with personnel licensing including flight crew.
- Annex 2 Rules Of The Air.
- Annex 3 Meteorological Service For International Air Navigation.
- Annex 4 Aeronautical Charts.
- Annex 5 Units Of Measurement To Be Used In Air And Ground Operations.
- Annex 6 Operation Of Aircraft.
- Annex 7 Aircraft Nationality And Registration Marks.
- Annex 8 Airworthiness Of Aircraft.
- Annex 9 Facilitation.
- Annex 10 Aeronautical Telecommunications.
- Annex 11 Air Traffic Control Service Flight Information Service Alerting Service.
- Annex 12 Search And Rescue.
- Annex 13 Aircraft Accident And Incident Investigation.
- Annex 14 Aerodromes.
- Annex 15 Aeronautical Information Services.
- Annex 16 Environmental Protection.
- Annex 17 Security Safeguarding International Civil Aviation Against Acts Of Unlawful Interference.
- Annex 18 The Safe Transport Of Dangerous Goods By Air.
The responsibility for implementing Annexes 1 and 8 rests with the State of Registry, that is the State in which the aircraft is registered. The responsibility for implementing Annex 6 rests with the State of Operator, the State in which the airline is based. Often the State of Operator and the State of Registry will be the same, as airlines tend to operate aircraft registered in the State in which they are based. More information can be obtained from International Civil Aviation Organization's website.
