We always hear about #ICAOannexes but many of us did not know the names of ICAO annexes, and what the purpose of each one. The fact is that I am not having any idea about the most of ICAO annexes, and That's why I am writing about it in this article.
Before we go in deepen explanation of ICAO annexes I will give you short introduction about ICAO. The International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) is a United Nations (UN) specialized agency, established in 1944 to manage the administration and governance of the Convention on International Civil Aviation (#ChicagoConvention). ICAO works with approximately 191 Member States and industry organizations to "reach consensus on international civil aviation Standards and Recommended Practices (#SARPs) and policies in support safe, efficient, secure, economically sustainable and environmentally responsible civil aviation sector" (ICAO, n.d., para. 1). These SARPs, annexes, and policies ensure Member States' local aviation operations conform to global norms, which in turn supports safe and efficient global air transportation.
Let us go back to December 7, 1944, the Convention on International Civil Aviation was established in Chicago by 52 signatory states [known as Chicago Convention]. Chicago Convention document was including 90 articles, the article 54 highlight the adaption of standards and recommended practices (SARPs) for convenience and designate them as Annexes to Chicago Convention and notifying all contracting states.
In article 12 , it is mention that "each state shall keep its own rules of the air as uniform as possible with those established under the convention, the duty to ensure compliance with these rules rests with the contracting state".
