HISTORY OF AIRPLANES

Human Dream to fly comes true

Sub Module 1 - Regulatory Framework

Important Dates in Airplane Development

C.1500 1783

For thousands of years people dreamed to fly in the air like birds do. Some even tried to fly by tying feathers to their arms and flapping them in air but in vain and had to face fatal consequences. Most of them thought that flying was beyond the powers of ordinary people. Some narrated stories of godlike people who could fly or be carried by winged animals through the air. The ancient Greek believed in a story about "Daedal us" and his son "Lcarus" both of whom flew with wings made of feathers and wax. But "Lcarus" flew too close to the sun and the solar heat melted his wings and he fell into the sea and drowned.

HISTORY of AVIATION LEGISLATION Aviation Legislation It is the term used to define the process through which laws relating to all areas of the civil aviation industry are brought into force Need for Aviation Legislation It already became clear in the early years of the civil aviation industry that transportation of passengers and goods with aircraft always involve a certain amount of risk and danger inherent in aviation. Therefore local and later on international lawmaking was inevitable and problems faced by the world wide expanding civil aviation demanded the need for generally accepted standards of safety to be recognized and enforced. Airlines throughout the world have strong incentives to maintain high standards of safety. Loss of passenger and cargo trade and increase in insurance rates that nay airline which compromises on safety standards has little chances of survival Rules and regulations were worked out for the following reasons: • • •

Introduction and History of ICAO In 1889 First International Conference was held in Paris to establish some generally accepted form of Air Law. No real progress till First World War. In 1914 UK Aeronautical Inspection Directorate (AID) was formed to ensure high standards of inspection throughout Aircraft industry. In 1918 UK Air Ministry was formed and control of AID was transferred to this Ministry. In 1919 International Convention for Aerial Navigation (ICAN) took place in Paris which made a number of definitions and classifications like Private & state Aircraft. In 1919 Air operator on realizing international cooperation established International Air Traffic Association. In 1929 International Conference on private air law was held commonly known as Warsaw Convention overcoming the difficulties of selecting the law of which nation would be applicable in a given set of circumstances. In November 1944 52 nations sent representative to an International Civil aviation convention at Chicago. In this convention principles and arrangements were setup on International air rights. Pending ratification of the convention

by 26 states the Provisional International Civil aviation Organization (PICAO) was established. It functioned from 6 June 1945 until 4 April 1947. In 1945, International Air Transport Association (IATA) was created by an act of Canadian Parliament and replaces International Air Traffic Association. The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) a specialized agency of the United Nations was created with the signing in Chicago on 7th December 1944 of the Convention on International Civil Aviation. ICAO is the permanent body and formed in April 1947 and is charged with the administration of the principles laid out in the Convention. Chicago convention is the constitution of ICAO. Currently there are 190 contracting states out of 192 UN member states ( two remaining UN member states which are not ICAO member states include Liechtenstein and Tuvalu) PCAA is a member of ICAO ICAO works in close co-operation with other members of the United Nations family such as o the World Meteorological Organization o the International Telecommunication Union o o o

the Universal Postal Union the World Health Organization and The International Maritime Organization.

The Chicago Convention The Second World War was a powerful catalyst for the technical development of the aero plane. At that time a vast network of passenger and freight carriage was set up but in order for air transport to support and benefit a world at peace there were many obstacles both political and technical to overcome. In the early days of 1944 the Government of the United States conducted exploratory discussions with other allied nations to develop an effective strategy. On the basis of these talks 52 States met in Chicago in November 1944. For five weeks the delegates considered the myriad issues of international civil aviation. The outcome was the Convention on International Civil Aviation also referred to as the Chicago Convention.

1.1.3 •

At the Chicago talks it was agreed that the Convention would only come into force thirty days after its ratification by a 26th State. In the interim a provisional ICAO (PICAO) was formed and given advisory powers with instructions to lay the foundation for an international organization devoted to the needs of civil aviation. The Chicago Convention entered in force on 4 April 1947 and 1CAO was formed. The 96 articles of the Chicago Convention establish the privileges and restrictions of all Contracting States and provide for the adoption of International Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPs) regulating international air transport. The Convention accepts the principle that every State has complete and exclusive sovereignty over the airspace above its territory and provides that no scheduled international air service may operate over or into the territory of a Contracting State without its previous consent.

Aims and Objectives of ICAO The aims and objectives of ICAO as contained in Article 44 of the Chicago Convention are to develop the principles and techniques of international air navigation and to foster the planning and development of international air transport so as to: For Training Purpose Only Rev. 00 Mar 2014

•

Contracting States have usually established a Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) within their country as the regulatory body in the field of civil aviation primarily dealing with safety issues and responsible for the regulation of air transport services to/from/within the country and for the enforcement of civil air regulations air safety and airworthiness standards.

•

It co-ordinates all regulatory functions with ICAO by taking the policy decisions necessitated by the advances made in the field of International Standards and Recommended Practices (SARPS) adopted in the ICAO Annexes.

•

The CAAs are headed by the Director General of Civil Aviation (DGCA); depending on the structure of the states.

•

The CAAs may take other names such as the Directorate General of Civil Aviation or are established under the Ministry of Transportation.

•

ICAO communicates with its Contracting States through the DGCAs by the means of State Letters. DGCAs and their experts participate in ICAO meetings and follow-up action thereon.

members the International Civil Aviation of Organization (ICAO) are also named Contracting States (Article 1 of the Chicago Convention) or Members States.

1.2.1

Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority

•

Civil aviation activities in Pakistan started immediately after independence in 1947 under civil Aircraft Rules 1937 but no formal orders or ordinance was issued neither any particular legislation took place until 1960.

•

In 1960 the first legal step was taken and President of Pakistan promulgated an ordinance (No. XXXII of 1960) known as the Civil Aviation Ordinance 1960 Quote "to make better provisions for the control manufacture possession use operation sale import and export of aircraft the control and regulation of Air Transport Services and the control and development of Aerodromes in Pakistan". This was the first legal step taken.

• •

A committee was formed by the Government of Pakistan in1976 to draft rules for the regulation of Air Transport in Pakistan.

•

As a result of these a set of Rules known as the "Civil Aviation Rules 1978" were formulated and later promulgated in January 1979.

The Role of EASA in Legislation

•

EASA contributes to the production of all European Union legislation related to the regulation of civil aviation safety and environmental compatibility.

•

It submits opinions to the European Union Commission and must be consulted by the Commission on all legislative proposals in this field.

•

Its experts have direct contact with all relevant organizations and authorities and it makes use of the knowledge available within industry and national administrations across the European Union.

•

EASA in consultation with its stakeholders adopts also socalled 'soft rules'.

•

These are non-binding standards specifications and guidance material to assist in the consistent application of European Union legislation across the European Union.

This ensures that the necessary standards are therefore being developed and maintained properly uniformly and consistently across the European Union.

•

Therefore EASA conducts inspections of undertakings as well as national authorities throughout the European Union both to monitor the application of European Union rules on aviation safety and to assess the effectiveness of these rules.

•

EASA also provides technical training which is essential to achieve overall consistency and high-level standards.

•

EASA is an independent legal entity set up by the European Union.

•

EASA assists the European Union Commission in preparing European Union legislation on civil aviation safety and environmental compatibility.

•

It also develops its own standards (certification specifications and guidance material) to facilitate the implementation of its objectives).

•

EASA is responsible for the certification of aeronautical products - aircraft engine parts and appliances - and the organizations that design them to ensure that aircraft are airworthy and meet environmental standards.

It is also the 'one-stop-shop' for the certification of foreign organizations that manufacture or maintain products used by Community operators.

•

Where Community regulation is implemented at Member State level (issuing of individual airworthiness certificates and approvals to production and maintenance organizations and personnel in their territory) EASA assists the Commission in overseeing its effective and uniform application.

•

EASA works closely with countries outside the European Union and international organisations in the aviation field to promote European Union safety standards and ensure a high degree of harmonization across the world.

•

While the work of EASA focuses on the airworthiness and environmental compatibility of aeronautical products it also will be given additional responsibilities as the scope of Community competences is extended to the regulation of air operations the licensing of flight crew and the oversight of third country aircraft flying in the territory of Member States.

•

In the longer term it is also envisaged that EASA will play a role in relation to the safety regulation of airport operation and air traffic management.

Y Currently the Basic Regulation establishes Community competence only for the regulation of the airworthiness and environmental compatibility of aeronautical products parts and appliances. Y Work is underway to extend the scope of this regulation to embrace the regulation of pilot licensing air operations and third country aircraft. Y It is envisaged also to extend the scope of the Basic Regulation to the safety regulation of airport operations and air traffic control services. Y With reference to rulemaking activities EASA consults with two bodies:

•

National authorities (the Advisory Group of National Authorities - AGNA). This is a political forum. The UK CAA has one voice in this group but that voice is significantly influential.

•

Stakeholder's representatives (the Safety Standards Consultative Committee - SSCC).

PCAA facilitates the transfer of aircraft into the register of another State by the issue of an "Export Certificate of Airworthiness". While not valid for the purpose of flight such a document provides confirmation by the exporting State of

ISO 9001 - 2008 Certified PTC/CM/Aviation Legislation/01 5 - 21

recent satisfactory review of the airworthiness status of the aircraft. For facilitating the export of class I II & III products PCAA have adopted title for the export document "Export Certificate of Airworthiness". This is a statement to confirm to the importing State the acceptable airworthiness status of the aircraft or other product. In the case of a complete aircraft the Export Certificate of Airworthiness either confirms the aircraft's conformity with the approved design data and its acceptable airworthiness status stating in effect that if the aircraft were to remain on the registry of the exporting State it would continue to qualify for the continuance of its Certificate of Airworthiness or that the aircraft standard complies with the requirements of the importing State and its in a condition for safe operation. It is very important to understand that an export certificate of airworthiness is not a Certificate of Airworthiness and therefore does not confer the right of international flight and cannot be validated to fly internationally. An aircraft having an Export Certificate of Airworthiness will require a valid Certificate of Airworthiness issued by the State of Registry Part IV section I Rule 16(c) of the CARs 1994 requires an export certificate of airworthiness to be issued when a product is exported from Pakistan. An export certificate of airworthiness will be issued to:

Certificate of Registration An aircraft registration is a unique alphanumeric string that identifies a civil aircraft in similar fashion to a license plate on an automobile. In accordance with the Convention on International Civil Aviation all aircraft must be registered with a national aviation authority and they must carry proof of this registration in the form of a legal document called a Certificate of Registration at all times when in operation. Most countries also require the aircraft registration to be imprinted on a permanent fireproof plate mounted on the fuselage for the purposes of post-fire/post-crash aircraft accident investigation. Because aeroplanes/airplanes display their registration numbers on the aft fuselage just forward of the tail in earlier times more often on the tail itself the registration is often referred to as the "tail number". Although each aircraft registration is unique some countries allow it to be re-used when the aircraft has been sold destroyed or retired. Also note that an individual aircraft may be assigned different registrations during its existence. This can be because the aircraft changes ownership jurisdiction of registration or in some cases for vanity reasons References for "C of R" can be found in:

The Airworthiness Directive (AD) is the medium for correction or any condition that causes the product to be out of conformity to the Approved Design Standards. An AD identifies the disparity defines its particulars and establishes limitations for inspection repair or alteration under which the product may continue to be operated. They are issued by the National Aviation Authority from either the manufacturer's or the airline's country. Airworthiness Directives effectively alter the original certification of the product. Thus for example an AD against a Type Certificated product becomes a part of the Type Certificate. The Airworthiness Directives may also be raised due to change in aviation legislations e.g. mandating of TCAS and EGPWS. They are distributed Y telegraphically to owners and operators Y Foreign Airworthiness Authorities Generally the Airworthiness Directive is made up of several parts: Y AD title Y Applicability Y Required compliance action Y Effective dates

The presence of any alteration or repair does not remove the product from applicability. Type Certificate and Airworthiness Certification information is used to identify the product affected. Applicability may be defined by specifying serial numbers or manufacturer's line numbers part numbers or other identification.

One way manufacturers communicate with aircraft owners and operators is through service bulletins and service notes. Service bulletins are issued to inform aircraft owners and technicians of possible design defects modifications servicing changes or other information that may be useful in maintaining an aircraft or component. On occasion service bulletins are made mandatory and are incorporated into airworthiness directives to correct an unsafe condition. Service Bulletin are issued by manufacturers to specify a change or a modification to their product Manufacturer's Service Bulletins are normally not related to airworthiness. Incorporation of them is therefore not mandatory. However when a manufacturer's Service Bulletin is incorporated by reference into the Airworthiness Directive accomplishment instructions the bulletin becomes mandatory.

This rule allows twin-engined airliners (such as the Airbus A300 A310 A320 A330 and A350 the Boeing 737 757 767 777 787 the Embraer E-Jets and the ATR 72) to fly long-distance routes that were previously off-limits to twinengined aircraft. There are different levels of ETOPS certification each allowing aircraft to fly on routes that are a certain amount of single-engine flying time away from the nearest suitable airport. For example if an aircraft is certified for 180 minutes it is permitted to fly any route not more than 180 minutes singleengine flying time to the nearest suitable airport. ETOPS operation has no direct correlation to water or distance over water. It refers to flight times between diversion airfields regardless as to whether such fields are separated by water or land. Prior to 2007 FAA defined ETOPS as "Extended Range Operations with two-engine airplanes" and applied to twins only. International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) Standard and Recommended Practice (SARP) applies only to twins and defines ETOPS as "Extended-range Twin-engine Operational Performance Standards". ETOPS applies to twins on routes with diversion time more than 60 minutes at one engine inoperative speed. For rules that also cover more than two engines as in the case of the FAA ETOPS applies on routes with diversion time more than 180 minutes for airplanes with more than two engines.

Until the mid-1980s the term EROPS (extended range operations) was used before being superseded by ETOPS usage. In 1997 when Boeing proposed to extend ETOPS authority for twins to beyond 180 minutes Airbus proposed to replace ETOPS by a newer system referred to as LROPS or Long Range Operational Performance Standards which would affect all civil airliners not just those with a twin-engine configuration with more than 180 minutes ETOPS. According to the FAA in 2007 "Several commenters . recommended use of the acronym "LROPS"-meaning 'Long Range Operations'-for three- and four-engine ETOPS to avoid confusion particularly for those operations beyond 180-minutes diversion time. The FAA has decided to use the single term 'extended operations ' or ETOPS for all affected operations regardless of the number of engines on the airplane. Government-owned aircraft (including military) do not have to adhere to ETOPS regulations.

The Performance 8ased Navigation (PBN) concept specifies RNAV (Area navigation) and RNP (Required Navigation performance) system performance requirements in terms of accuracy integrity availability continuity and functionally needed for proposed operations in the context of a particular Airspace concept when supported by the appropriate navigation infrastructure.

•

PBN concept represents a shift from sensor-based to performance-based navigation.

•

Before going into the details certain basic terminologies need to be understood

•

Visual Flight Rules (VFR) is often used for sight-seeing flights aerial photography or lift services for parachute jumping. Pilots flying under VFR are not permitted to fly through clouds. Many non-commercial private recreational aircraft also operate under VFR whenever the sky is clear. Under VFR the pilot is primarily responsible for navigation obstacle clearance and maintaining separation from other aircraft using the see-and-avoid concept.

Control procedures designed to maintain separation from other aircraft. Most scheduled airline flights operate under IFR. •

Separation (or Protection) The most important concept of IFR flying is that separation is maintained regardless of weather conditions. In controlled airspace Air Traffic Control (ATC) separates IFR aircraft from obstacles and other aircraft using a flight clearance based on route time distance speed and altitude. ATC monitors IFR flights on radar or through aircraft position reports in areas where radar coverage is not available. Aircraft position reports are sent as voice radio transmissions. Aircraft position reports are not necessary if ATC reports that the aircraft is in radar contact. In the United States a flight operating under IFR is required to provide position reports unless ATC advises a pilot that the plane is in radar contact. The pilot must resume position reports after ATC advises that radar contact has been lost or that radar services are terminated.

•

Navigation Under IFR the primary means of navigation are either via radio beacons on the ground such as VORs and NDBs or GPS. In areas of radar coverage ATC may also assign headings to IFR aircraft also known as radar vectors. Radar vectors are one of several methods which ATC uses to provide separation between aircraft for landing especially in busy traffic environments; in less congested airspace aircraft are increasingly responsible for their own traffic awareness and collision avoidance. Modern Flight Management Systems have evolved sufficiently to allow a crew to plan a flight not only as to route and altitude but to

specific time of arrival at specific locations. This capability is used in several trial projects experimenting with four dimensional approach clearances for commercial aircraft with time as the fourth dimension. These clearances allow ATC to optimize the arrival of aircraft at major airports which increases airport capacity and uses less fuel providing monetary and environmental benefits to airlines and the public at large respectively. •

•

Required Navigation Performance (RNP) and Area Navigation (RNAV) are two aircraft navigation specifications for Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) flight of Performance-based Navigation (PBN). RNP and RNAV systems are fundamentally similar. The key difference between them is the requirement for on-board performance monitoring and alerting. A navigation specification that includes a requirement for on-board navigation performance monitoring and alerting is referred to as an RNP specification. The one not having such a requirement is referred to as an RNAV specification. Area Navigation (RNAV) is a method of Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) navigation that allows an aircraft to choose any course within a network of navigation beacons rather than navigating directly to and from the beacons. This can conserve flight distance reduce congestion and allow flights into airports without beacons. RNAV can be defined as a method of navigation that permits aircraft operation on any desired course within the coverage of station-referenced navigation signals or within the limits of a self contained system capability or a combination of these.

RNAV specifications include requirements for certain navigation functions. These functional requirements include: Y Continuous indication of aircraft position relative to track to be displayed to the pilot flying on a navigation display situated in his primary field of view; Y Display of distance and bearing to the active TO waypoint; Y Display of ground speed or time to the active TO waypoint; Y Navigation data storage function; and Y Appropriate failure indication of the RNAV system including its sensors. RNAV operations are based on the use of RNAV equipment which automatically determines the aircraft position in the horizontal plane using input from one or a combination of the following type of position sensors together with the means to establish and follow a desired path.

specific types of navigation aids to prevent reversion to an inadequate sensor. Dual system/sensor installations may also be required depending on the intended operation or need. An RNAV system capable of achieving the performance requirements of an RNP specification is referred to as an RNP system. Because specific performance requirements are defined for each navigation specification an aircraft approved for a RNP specification is not automatically approved for all RNAV specifications. Similarly an aircraft approved for an RNP or RNAV specification having stringent accuracy requirements is not automatically approved for a navigation specification having a less stringent accuracy requirement. The current specific requirements of an RNP system include: • Capability to follow a desired ground track with reliability repeatability and predictability including curved paths; and • Where vertical profiles are included for vertical guidance use of vertical angles or specific altitude constraints to define a desired vertical path.

•

The performance monitoring and alerting capabilities may be provided in different forms depending on the system installation architecture and configurations including: • Display and indication of both the required and the estimated navigation system performance; • Monitoring of the system performance and alerting

REDUCED VERTICAL SEPERATION MINIMUM Reduced Vertical Separation Minima or Minimum (RVSM) is an aviation term used to describe the reduction of the standard vertical separation required between aircraft flying at levels between FL290 (29 000 ft.) and FL410 (41 000 ft.) from 2 000 feet to 1 000 feet (or between 8 900 metres and 12 500 metres from 600 metres to 300 metres in China). This therefore increases the number of aircraft that can safely fly in a particular volume of airspace. Historically standard vertical separation was 1 000 feet from the surface to FL290 2 000 feet from FL290 to FL410 and 4 000 feet above this. This was because the accuracy of the pressure altimeter (used to determine altitude) decreases with height. Over time Air data computers (ADCs) combined with altimeters have become more accurate and autopilots more adept at maintaining a set level therefore it became apparent that for many modern aircraft the 2 000 feet separation was too cautious. It was therefore proposed by ICAO that this be reduced to 1 000 feet. Between 1997 and 2005 RVSM was implemented in all of Europe North Africa Southeast Asia and North America South America and over the North Atlantic South Atlantic and Pacific Oceans.

The North Atlantic implemented initially in March 1997 at flight levels 330 through 370. The entire western hemisphere implemented RVSM FL290-FL410 on January 20 2005. Africa implemented it on September 25 2008. Only aircraft with specially certified altimeters and autopilots may fly in RVSM airspace otherwise the aircraft must fly lower or higher than the airspace or seek special exemption from the requirements. Additionally aircraft operators (airlines or corporate operators) must receive specific approval from the aircraft's state of registry in order to conduct operations in RVSM airspace. Non RVSM approved aircraft may transit through RVSM airspace provided they are given continuous climb throughout the designated airspace and 2 000ft vertical separation is provided at all times between the non-RVSM flight and all others for the duration of the climb/descent. Critics of the change are concerned that by reducing the space

In recent years a great deal of effort has been devoted to understanding how accidents happen in aviation and other industries. As a result of extensive research it has been proved that most accidents result from human error. Studies have further confirmed that these human errors are not purely indicative of carelessness or incompetence on the job. Investigators are finding that the human is only the last link in a chain that leads to an accident. We will not prevent accidents by changing people; we will only prevent accidents when we address the underlying causal factors. In the 1990's the term 'organizational accident' was coined because most of the links in an accident chain are under the control of the organization. Since the greatest threats to aviation safety originate in organizational issues making the system safer will require action by the organization. Aviation safety experts and Regulatory Authorities worldwide have accepted and endorsed the conclusion that the most efficient way to enhance aviation safety is to adopt a systematic approach to manage safety. The basic safety process is accomplished in five steps:

A safety issue or concern is raised a hazard is identified or an incident or accident happens The concern or event is reported or brought to the attention of management; The event hazard or issue is analyzed to determine its causes or sources; Corrective action control or mitigation is developed and implemented; and The corrective action is evaluated to make sure it is effective. If the safety issue is resolved the action

•

can be documented and the safety enhancement maintained. If the problem or issue is not resolved it should be re-analyzed until it is resolved. Safety is defined by ICAO as a state in which the risk of harm to persons or property damage is reduced to and maintained at or below an acceptable level through a continuing process of hazard identification and risk management. A Safety Management System is a systematic approach to managing safety including the necessary organizational structures accountabilities policies and procedures. A Safety Management System concerns itself with organizational safety and defines how the Airline intends the management of air safety to be conducted as an integral part of the company's business management activities.

In common with all management systems a safety management system provides for goal setting planning and measuring performance. A Safety Management System is woven into the fabric of the organization. It becomes part of the culture; the way people do their jobs. Notwithstanding the Regulatory aspect aviation experts agree that implementation of an SMS by an Airline is justifiable as it also makes good business sense from the viewpoint of cost/benefit analysis. Aviation can never be entirely risk free. While risk can never be completely eliminated it must be reduced to as low a level as is reasonably practicable to ensure maximum safety and operational efficiency. The primary requirement for a Safety Management System (SMS) is to establish a management system that has the necessary processes and procedures in place such that operational safety is maintained at this acceptable level (risk management) and specified operational results are always achieved (quality management). Unlike traditional methods which typically identify safety deficiencies after undesired events safety management systems proactively identify and reduce causative hazards and their associated risks.

State Safety Program ICAO Standards place a responsibility on ICAO contracting States to have a State Safety Programme (SSP). The programme is an integrated set of Regulations and activities aimed at improving safety. An SSP is a management system for the management of safety by the State. The implementation of an SSP must be commensurate with the size and complexity of the State's aviation system and may require coordination among multiple authorities responsible for individual elements of civil aviation functions in the State. There are four components of an SSP which represent the two core operational activities an SSP must undertake as well as the organizational arrangements that are necessary to support such core operational activities. The four components of an SSP are: • State safety policy and objectives; • State safety risk management; • State safety assurance; and • State safety promotion. Since Pakistan Civil Aviation Authority (PCAA) has regulatory responsibilities for aviation safety we need to examine our legislations policies and processes from the view point of SSP.

Although it may have been assumed that all is in order the SSP may still reveal issues that should be resolved to improve the way in which aviation safety is managed in Pakistan. The SSP is based on comprehensive analyses of the State's aviation system; state safety policies (based on hazard identification) and safety risk management. Also safety oversight is focused on the areas of significant safety concerns or higher safety risks. Thus SSP provides the means to combine prescriptive and performance-based approaches to safety rulemaking policy development and oversight by Pakistan.

PIA may continue to operate on all routes presently being operated by it -- Private sector airlines along with PIA should also be eligible to operate to countries where open skies or multiple designations of airlines are available. Where PIA is not operating to its full entitlement the surplus capacity of PIA on these routes may be given to private airlines. While finalizing new ASAs Pakistan should opt for multiple designations of airlines particularly for cargo and charter services. Under the ASA's where ever PIA has no plans to operate private sector airlines if they so desire may be designated to operate on such routes and PIA's designation may be withdrawn. Operation by private carriers on the international routes should be linked with their continued operation on domestic routes for at least one year and meeting all mandatory conditions of domestic operations to justify acquisition of international route. 5th freedom rights are to be granted strictly on the basis of reciprocity ensuring balancing of rights in terms of market value and that the commercial interests of Pakistan are not compromised. Selective concessions may be made for quality airlines.
