The Chicago Convention and the birth of the International Civil Aviation Organization

The Chicago Convention, stipulated in the American city of the same name on 7 December 1944, is the result of a world congress held close to the end of the Second World War.
The purpose of the treaty was to promote economic / commercial recovery, promulgating the rules for air transport between different states and effectively sanctioning the underlying principles (from the point of
legal view) of commercial aviation.
In fact, the Chicago convention laid the foundations for the birth ofInternational Civil Aviation Organization - ICAO - to which particular importance was given in the course of the convention.
We can say without a shadow of a doubt that the modern Commercial Aviation concept, was born thanks to the commitment of those who wanted this agreement.
In particular, the so-called "technical annexes" to the Chicago Convention are worthy of mention, containing international standards and recommendations involving the following areas:

  • Patents and certifications for seafaring and maintenance personnel;
  • Air standards;
  • Meteorology;
  • Aeronautical cards;
  • Ground-to-air communications standardized;
  • Aircraft operations;
  • Aircraft registration and identification;
  • Airworthiness certificates;
  • Equipment;
  • Aeronautical telecommunications;
  • Air traffic services;
  • Location services;
  • Accident investigation;
  • Characteristics of airports, airfields and landing fields;
