2.5 Air Traffic Control (Scheduled and Non-scheduled Traffic)

The regime's split: the scheduled international air services — Article 6's prior-approval world (no scheduled service into-or-out of a state's territory except by special permission-or-authorisation — the ASAs' exchange of the route rights, capacities, and the tariff clauses) and the non-scheduled (charter-and-private) flights — Article 5's conditional freedom (the notification; the landing-for-non-traffic purposes; the state's power to require the permission for the cargo-and-passenger charters — the charter politics of the tourism age). The air trafficcontrol's own machinery: the state's ATC obligations (the air navigation services — the Chicago Annexes' disciplines; the CNS/ATM systems' modern faces), the flight-information-regions' global mosaic (the FIRs — the oceanic-and-remote regions' delegation lore), and the coordination'sregional bodies (the ICAO's regional offices; the Bangkok-and-the-Asian FIR interfaces — Nepal's FIR-and-route questions with the neighbours: the Kathmandu FIR's congestion-and-new-routes story of the modern era).
