Convention on International Civil Aviation

Ok kiddo, do you know what airplanes are? They're big machines that can go up in the sky and take us to different places, right?

Well, sometimes people from different countries want to fly to other countries using airplanes. But because each country has its own rules and regulations for flying, it can be confusing and difficult for airlines and pilots to know what they can and can't do while flying over different countries.

That's where the Convention on International Civil Aviation comes in. It's like a big agreement between lots of countries that establishes rules and guidelines for flying airplanes across borders.

It helps make sure that planes and pilots from one country can fly safely and legally over another country's airspace. It also covers things like airport operations, air traffic control, and aviation safety standards.

Basically, the Convention on International Civil Aviation helps people from all over the world to fly safely and easily, like when you go on a plane with your family for a vacation.
