Amendments to Air Code

June 30, 2015

The President signed Federal Law On Amending the Air Code of the Russian Federation.

The amendments are aimed at regulating the involvement of search and rescue forces, as well as aviation companies and state and experimental aviation organisations, in assisting passengers and crew whose aircraft are or were in distress and individuals who experience distress at sea.

The amendments were prompted by the requirements of the 1979 International Convention on Maritime Search and Rescue and the International Maritime Organisation and International Civil Aviation Organisation’s International Aeronautical and Maritime Search and Rescue Manual.
