INTRODUCTION
Aviation law is the law that governs flight and all of the legal issues that arise as a result of it. In simple words, Aviation law is the law of Air. The Indian civil aviation industry is regulated by the Aircraft Act of 1934 and the Aircraft Rules of 1937. It focuses on improving regulations related to aircraft. It is pertinent to note that only the aviation industry is exempted from WTO regulations. In layman’s terms, air law is “a set of rules that govern the use of airspace and the benefits it provides to aviation, the general public, and governments around the world.”[1] The central regulatory body for civil aviation in India is the Directorate General of Civil Aviation which is also known as DGCA.
