Air Law: A comprehensive sourcebook for Southern African pilots is
the first book on air law published by a leading academic and is
intended to serve the Southern African pilots' community. Written
in a straight-forward style, Air Law is fully referenced and
clearly presented. The book provides student pilots and their
instructors with the in-depth knowledge that pilots need to pass
their examinations and obtain their licences. Air Law offers
private pilots a source of legal reference that will enable them to
remain competent and compliant aviators and guides them through
complex regulations. Air Law will also help commercial pilots to
secure the core knowledge of air law that they need to progress to
advanced procedures. The book contains a section intended for drone
pilots. Air Law tells a story: that of flying safely. The book
offers readers who are passionate about aviation a deep insight
into the art of safe flying. You will follow a VFR pilot on a
cross-country flight, and see how the rules, regulations, and
demands of air law are there to produce better pilots, and to make
flying a unique and long-lasting human experience.

At last, the students, coaches and arbitrators who have dedicated
so many hours to the Danubia Files will see the results of their
labours. Six tribunals of renowned international arbitrators and
educators have issued awards in the Vis Problems XIV to XIX. Each
award considers the issues and sets out the decision of the
tribunal in their own words and style. And at last, here is a
reference text that deals with one of the most important - yet most
neglected - stages in arbitration procedure: the drafting of the
arbitration Award. The first lesson of this book is that there is
no single "right" way to draft an award. Each tribunal has its own
voice, its own character; there are many styles that can produce a
good award. "A wonderful achievement and highly innovative and
useful contribution that will be of great interest to all
international arbitration lawyers, scholars and students." - Gary
Born, Chair, International Arbitration Group, Wilmer Cutler
Pickering Hale and Dorr LLP. "I wish I'd thought of it This book
will immediately become a "must-have" for law firm international
arbitration groups. The awards not only increase the already rich
value of the Vis problem materials for advocacy training, they also
are a much-needed resource for award drafting practice. Be sure to
read the down-to-earth drafting guides by Louise Barrington and
Pierre Karrer." - Lucy Reed, Global co-Head, International
Arbitration, Freshfields. "You can measure the height of the Great
Pyramid at Cheops without climbing it by multiplying the height of
a pole by the ratio of the two shadows (500 BC). You can put little
wheels on luggage (1970). Great ideas in retrospect seem obvious,
and the Danubia files are another." - Jan Paulsson, President,
International Council of Commercial Arbitrators (ICCA).
