civil aviation authorities

Civil aviation authorities are government organizations responsible for overseeing and regulating all aspects of civil aviation within a country. Their main duties include ensuring the safety of air travel, creating and enforcing aviation regulations, managing air traffic control, and certifying aircraft and pilots. They also work to promote the growth of the aviation industry while balancing environmental concerns and public safety. Each country has its own authority, such as the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) in the United States or the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) in Europe, ensuring that air travel is safe and efficient.
