Operation Outside of the United
States of Civil Aircraft of United
States Registry,’ contains the fol
lowing statement in its preface:
. . . The United States govern
ment has received numerous com
plaints from various foreign gov
ernments that civil aircraft of
United States registry have been
flown in their airspace in violation
of their rules and regulations.
Such action by the operators of
United States aircraft is becoming
of increased concern to this coun
try. Often these actions have caused
considerable embarrassment to this
government. The failure to file
flight plans or the disregard of
flight plans filed have led on oc
casion to costly search and rescue
operations by foreign governments.
The ignoring of foreign traffic pat
terns and airport rules have al
most caused serious accidents.
Flights into prohibited areas have
alarmea toreign governments ana
j in some cases caused them to adopt
I certain security measures, includ
ing firing on the aircraft involved.
The United States Department of
State has requested that the Fed
eral Aviation Agency take appro
priate action to insure that civil
aircraft of United States registry
are flown in accordance with the
rules and regulations relating to the
flight and maneuver of aircraft
which are in effect in the foreign
country, over or within which the
flight is being made. The Depart
ment of State has pointed out that
the United States government has
an obligation in this regard as a
party to the 1944 Chicago Conven
tion on International Civil Aviation
(61 Stat. 1180), Article 12 of which
reads as follows:
“Each contracting State under
takes to adopt measures to insure
that every aircraft flying over or
maneuvering within its territory
and that every aircraft carying its
nationality mark, wherever such
aircraft may be, shall comply with
the rules and regulations relating
to the flight and maneuver of air- j
craft there in force. Each con- j
tracting State undertakes to keep !
its own regulations in these respects
uniform, to the greatest possible
extent, with those estalished under
this convention Over the high
seas, the rules in force shall be
those established under this con
vention. Each contracting State
undertakes to insure the prosecu
tion of all persons violating the
regulations applicable."
“I strongly urge that in planning
a polar bear hunt that you con
sider the intent in the Proposed
Rules and also Article 12 of the
Chicago Convention 1944," states
Allen D. Hulen, Asst. Adminis
trator, FAA.
