3. History
 After WWII, commercial aviation grew rapidly , using
mostly ex-military pilots to transport people and cargo.
 Factories that had produced bombers were quickly
adapted to the production of passenger aircraft like the
Douglas DC-4.
 This growth was accelerated by the establishment of
military airports throughout the world, either for combat
use or training.
 These could easily be turned to civil aviation use.
 The first commercial jet airliner to fly was the British de
Haviland Comet.
 The first commercial aviation flight in India took place on
18 February 1911.

4. Why do we need transportation policies
The purpose of transportation policy is to provide
direction for determining the amount of national resources
that will be dedicated to transportation and for determining
the quality of service that is essential for economic activity
and national defense. National policy provides guidelines to
the many agencies that exercise transportation decision –
marketing powers and to Congress, the president, and the
courts that make and interpret the laws affecting
transportation. Thus, transportation policy provides the
framework for the allocation of resources to the
transportation modes.
Transportation is fundamental to the economic activity of a
country.

5. Policies of Civil Aviation
Aircraft act (1934)
Aircraft Act, 1934 and Aircraft Rules, 1937 were enacted to
regulate the civil aviation industry in India.
Stipulating the parameters for determining airworthiness,
maintenance of aircraft, general conditions for flying and safety, registration
of aircraft and the conduct of investigations in case of any discrepancy.

The notification intends to regulate and control the commercial exploitation
of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) in Indian airspace, and registration of all UASs
has been made a mandatory requirement on the Directorate General of Civil
Aviation’s (DGCA) “Digital-Sky” platform.
The entire airspace is delineated into green, red and yellow zones and no
prior permissions are required for the operation of a UAS in the green zone.
The UAS Traffic Management (UTM) aspects were specified in Part IX of the
notification and aimed at facilitating automated permissions for operating the UAS
and stipulated that a detailed policy framework would be issued within sixty days.

17. Aero sports (2021)
Aero sports create significant opportunities for the growth of tourism,
employment generation and interest in aviation activities. A growth-oriented NASP
may help attract investments in the latest aero sports technology, infrastructure and
best practices.
Aero sports are a part of most
adventure sports, which has gained
popularity in India. It is the best
adventure sport which should try to
experience the thrill in air and breath
-taking views of the country side.

18. Drone rules (2021)
The Rules aim to create a 'digital sky platform' which is a business-friendly single-window
online system, with minimum human interference, where most of the permissions will be self-
generated.
The Rules have reduced the red-tape involved in the process of seeking compliance:
 The number of forms has been reduced from 25 to 5.
 The types of fees have been reduced from 72 to 4.
 The Quantum of the fee has been reduced to nominal levels and delinked with the
of the drone.
 An easier process is specified for the transfer and deregistration of drones through the
digital sky platform.
 Nano and model drones (made for research or recreation purposes) are exempt from
type certification.
Coverage of drones under Drone Rules, 2021 has been increased from 300 kg to 500
This will cover drone taxis also.
Type Certificate is required only when a drone is to be operated in India. Importing and
manufacturing drones purely for exports are exempt from type certification and unique
identification numbers.

19. Air Cargo
Air cargo is any property carried or to be carried in an
aircraft. Air cargo comprises air freight, air express and airmail.
There are two types of air cargo – general and special cargo.
General cargo includes high-value goods, such as
electronics, jewellery and pharmaceuticals. Air shipping is more
expensive than shipping by sea, but due to the high margins
and the fact that many electronic goods are fragile, air freight is
the most appropriate form of transport.
Special cargo requires special conditions for transporting
goods, such as temperature control, certain air conditions or
protected casing ( e.g. if the goods are hazardous or livestock).
