Aviation is defined by constant change. From pioneering beginnings it has evolved into a globally inter-connected transport system - innovation driven yet crisis-prone. Cybersecurity, climate protection, and geopolitical tensions challenge the legal framework, while air taxis, unmanned aircraft, and artificial intelligence put established rules to the test. Understanding international aviation requires a complete view of its regulatory architecture.
This handbook provides an up-to-date, systematic and holistic overview of international aviation law, incorporating current trends in legislation, case law, and administrative practice. Besides covering established subjects, such as rights in aircraft, air traffic rights, air accident investigations, or air carrier liability, it moves beyond to address key issues like military aviation, airport regulation, and the relevant aspects of space law.
Combining academic depth with extensive practical experience, the handbook discusses current legislative developments, emerging business models, and the transformation of air transportation. Additionally, topics of practical relevance such as cybersecurity, international cooperation and climate protection are systematically contextualized.
