The aviation industry is being transformed by the use of unmanned aerial vehicles, or drones - commercially, militarily, scientifically and recreationally. National regulations have generally failed to keep pace with the expansion of the fast-growing drone industry. Aviation Law and Drones: Unmanned Aircraft and the Future of Aviation traces the development of aviation laws and regulations, explains how aviation is regulated at an international and national level, considers the interrelationship between rapidly advancing technology and legislative attempts to keep pace, and reviews existing domestic and international drone laws and issues (including safety, security, privacy and airspace issues). Against this background, the book uniquely proposes a rationale for, and key provisions of, guiding principles for the regulation of drones internationally - provisions of which could also be implemented domestically. Finally, the book examines the changing shape of our increasingly busy skies - technology beyond drones and the regulation of that technology. The world is on the edge of major disruption in aviation - drones are just the beginning. Given the almost universal interest in drones, this book will be of interest to readers worldwide, from the academic sector and beyond.
International Air Carrier Liability brings together essential treaties and airline-to-airline agreements on air carrier liability, safety and security, and supplements these with expert commentary and analysis. The examination considers the general regulatory framework of international civil aviation (including the Chicago Convention and related documents) and how the liability regime fits within that framework. The book is divided into three parts: dealing in turn with liability, safety and security, and civil aviation regulation. Part I, for example, provides comment and analysis of the international air-carrier liability regime, how the main liability conventions operate, and the application of these conventions to international carriage by air (passengers, baggage and cargo). Given its subject matter and the universal state party participation in these conventions, this book has truly global application. David Hodgkinson and Rebecca Johnston aim to provide a reference aid for legal practitioners (at law firms, airlines, manufacturers, aviation-related corporations and government departments and agencies), as well as academics, students (undergraduate and post graduate) and government officials regarding treaties, domestic laws and documents concerned with these vital legal issues.

Based on true events, JUST ONLY ADINA is about a little girl named Adina, who is the third of four children and is not happy about it. She would much rather be an only child, but since that's not possible, she tries hard to make it seem like it is. She takes advantage of living in a tent and a dumpster in the yard until a summer storm and her dad prove these ideas to be unwise. Then there's the time she makes a house in the hall closet. But when she spends the weekend with her friend, Emily, a real only child, Adina finds her attitude changes. JUST ONLY ADINA will make you chuckle as you follow Adina on her quest to be an only child and learn the lesson that one can be content with things that cannot be changed.
