International Commission for Air Navigation

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The International Commission for Air Navigation (ICAN), French Commission Internationale de Navigation Aérienne ( CINA ), German about International Commission for Air Navigation , was the predecessor organization of the international civil aviation organization ICAO .

history

ICAN emerged from the first International Air Convention (IAC) in 1919, which, on the occasion of the peace conference in Paris, passed an international aviation agreement that was signed by 26 of the 32 allied states . In 1932 the agreement was completely revised, whereupon other states declared their accession. By the Second World War , 38 states had ratified the agreement. The US was not a member of ICAN.

The Commission's activities were interrupted with the outbreak of World War II. In 1944 their tasks were transferred to the newly founded ICAO , in which the USA now also participated.
