Aviation Organizations

International Civil Aviation Organization ICAO

The rapid development in international aviation prior and after the second world war forced the the United Nation to find a aviation organization. The first step was done in 1944 when the PICAO (Provisional International Civil Aviation Organisation), a preliminary aviation organization, was found in Chicago. After acceptance of the “Agreement of Chicago” the International Civil Organization (ICAO) was found on April 4^th 1947. More than 140 members of the United Nations participate this organisation. In the year 1967 the Bundesrepublik Deutschland became also member of the ICAO.
