Practical Aviation and Aerospace Law Workbook

Book excerpt: This workbook was designed for use with the textbook Practical Aviation & Aerospace Law in aviation law courses offered to students preparing for aviation careers. It aids in application of legal principles set forth in the textbook to the kinds of decisions students will make in the real world of aviation as managers, pilots, mechanics, aircraft owners, air traffic controllers, air safety investigators, and others involved in aviation as a profession or hobby. Many of the workbook questions are based on real dilemmas faced by the author's clients during his more than 30 years' experience. The questions are designed as exercises to give aviation law students an idea of what can happen in real industry situations. Practical Aviation & Aerospace Law provides the basic legal knowledge and perspective to help readers understand how the legal system works in relation to aviation, recognize and avoid common legal pitfalls, and be able to discern when they need to call a lawyer. The seventh edition reflects recent judicial decisions and changes in statutory, regulatory and international treaty law. It covers topics surrounding the burgeoning unmanned aircraft system (UAS) and commercial spaceflight segments as well, from an increasingly global viewpoint.
