Critical Acclaim
‘This new book provides a portrait and analysis of air navigation services (ANS) and their legal implications. It fills a gap in the available international air law literature. In addition to discussing ANS, the related obligations of States under the Chicago Convention, the organisation of airspace for the purpose of service provision, and the legal status of service providers are discussed, as well as civil-military cooperation and the liability of ANS. Based on his more than 35-year experience in ANS, both practical and academic, the author has succeeded in providing an excellent, authoritative and comprehensive analysis for all parties dealing with the subject.’
– Ludwig Weber, McGill University, Canada
