national aviation authorities

National aviation authorities (NAAs) are government agencies responsible for overseeing and regulating all aspects of a country's civil aviation. They set safety standards, enforce aviation laws, manage air traffic control, and ensure compliant operation of airlines and airports. NAAs work to maintain safe, efficient, and secure air travel within their borders, aligning with international regulations and standards. Essentially, they serve as the central authority ensuring that aviation activities are conducted safely, responsibly, and smoothly for airlines, passengers, and other stakeholders.
