Extract

The 22d session of the Council of the International Civil Aviation Organization was held from May 18 to June 23, 1954. During the session, the Council considered a report from the Air Navigation Commission which concluded that a comprehensive set of specifications for the type certification and operation of aircraft was not a practicable objective at that time, and that the primary objective of international airworthiness standards should instead be a definition, for application by competent national authorities, of a minimum international basis for recognition by states of certificates of airworthiness for flights of foreign aircraft into and over their territories. Such a code should be in less detailed form than existing international airworthiness and corresponding aircraft operations standards. The Council authorized the Air Navigation Commission to convene a panel of experts to prepare an initial draft, and requested the Commission to report back when this had been done.
