Overview
This act sets out a state's framework for regulating civil aviation, covering air navigation and the operation of aircraft, airmen, air schools and flying clubs, sport parachuting, and airports and restricted landing areas. It vests a state aeronautics agency with authority to supervise and regulate aeronautics — adopting rules, orders, and standards that conform to federal aviation law, designating state airways within the navigable air space, maintaining a statewide airport plan, and enforcing the state's aeronautics laws. It further authorizes that agency to cooperate with the federal government and other public bodies, to provide technical and financial assistance to municipalities and other airport sponsors, to enter into contracts, and to enter private land and structures as needed to carry out these functions.
