RULES OF THE AIR AND APPLICABILITY OF THE RULES OF THE AIR
RULES OF THE AIR
The Rules of the Air for international air transport are principally contained in ICAO documentation, specifically: Annexe 2, Flight Procedures (Doc 8168), and Air Traffic Services PANS-RAC (Doc 4444), State Regulations which give effect to these international standards, and the State Regulations themselves.
APPLICABILITY OF THE RULES OF THE AIR
The Rules of the Air shall apply to aircraft bearing the nationality and registration marks of a Contracting State, wherever they may be, to the extent that they do not conflict with the rules published by the State having jurisdiction over the territory overflow.
The Company must ensure that all crew members are familiar with the laws, regulations and procedures pertinent to the performance of their duties.
The operation of an aircraft either in flight or on the movement area of an aerodrome shall be in compliance with the general rules and, in addition when in flight, either with the:
• Visual flight rules, or
• Instrument flight rules.
The Commander of an aircraft shall be responsible for the operation of the aircraft in accordance with the rules of the air. The Commander shall, in an emergency situation that requires immediate decision and action, take any action he considers necessary under the circumstances. In such cases, he may deviate from the rules of the air, operational procedures and methods in the interest of safety.
Before beginning a flight, the Commander of an aircraft shall become familiar with all available information appropriate to the intended operation. Pre-flight action for flights away from the vicinity of an aerodrome and for all IFR flights shall include a careful study of available current weather reports and forecasts, taking into consideration fuel requirements and an alternative course of action if the flight cannot be completed as planned.
The Commander shall have final authority as to the disposition of the aircraft while in command.
No person shall pilot an aircraft, or act as a crew member of an aircraft, while under the influence of intoxicating liquor or any narcotic or drug, by reason of which that person's capacity to act is impaired (refer to OM Part A, Chapter 6).
Essential information pertinent to the intended flight concerning search and rescue must be is accessible to the Commander.
The Company, and by implication, therefore, the Commander, shall ensure that Air Traffic Services are used for all flights whenever available.
