Aviation Law for Aerodromes
Aviation law comprises a wide range of rules and regulations, and compliance is crucial for the efficient planning and successful operation of an aerodrome. Due to the international nature of air traffic, supranational and international legal principles of aerodrome planning need to be considered as they build the foundation of any domestic legal system.
In this essential three-day training, participants will receive a comprehensive overview of the fundamentals of international aviation law, regulatory frameworks, international bodies (such as ICAO, IATA and ACI) and their requirements, and strengthen their knowledge through industry case studies and practical discussions.
International law needs to be integrated into national legislation. Different countries interpret and incorporate international law in different ways. European Law is directly applicable and binding in all member states. Participants will learn about European aviation law as well as the structure and rulemaking procedures of the European Union. The course will provide participants with a sound understanding of the European framework regulation where common rules and essential requirements are laid out in a Basic Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2018/1139) and the more detailed technical specifications are described within implementing regulations.
Practical examples are used to familiarise the participants with the most important legal aspects related to aerodrome planning and operation. The course is aimed at airport planners and managers, airport operators, architects and employees of public authorities who wish to gain confidence in the interpretation and application of aviation law. It is a basic course for which no prior knowledge is required.

Dr. iur. Chehab Salih
Chehab holds a Doctor of Laws degree from the University of Potsdam and is specialised in International Aviation Law. Within his dissertation, he discussed legal questions that arise during the demonstration of compliance at aerodromes, also focusing on challenges states face when international requirements are integrated into national legislation.
An expert in airport operations and safety analyses, Chehab holds a Master’s degree in Aeronautical and Astronautical Engineering from the Technical University of Berlin, with a focus on air traffic control procedures, flight operations, airport planning, and aerodynamics. Chehab has wide ranging global experience in assisting airports in developing innovative operational concepts for safe and efficient airside operations. This knowledge was gained during numerous audits and trainings he conducted on a worldwide basis. In addition, he focuses on various national research projects, for example for the German Ministry of Transport introducing SERA regulations in Germany (IFR flight operations in airspace G).
At airsight, Chehab is responsible for the conduction of aeronautical studies with regards to aerodrome operations, air traffic control, and airport planning, including numerous compliance check studies and analyses of threats regarding implementation of new wind turbines in aerodrome vicinity. Further, Chehab is responsible for aerial service at airsight, focusing on operations of drones at aerodromes. Currently, Chehab is supporting Changi airport during the conduction of the pilot safety case aiming to prove the safe introduction of the 3rd runway.
