ICAO rules are applicable only for civil aircraft. State aircraft – identified by ICAO as military, customs and police services – are not required to comply with these rules but States shall, when issuing rules for their State aircraft, have ‘due regard’ for the safety of navigation of civil aircraft.

IFATCA Policy is:

Controllers shall be trained in handling State aircraft operations including:

  • State aircraft not conforming to civil aviation rules and regulations
  • The implications of sovereign and international airspace on State aircraft operations.
See: Resolution B9 – WP 92 – Accra 2018
