Two copies of air navigation regulations for civil aircraft for Bahrain [spelt Bahrein throughout], with conditions governing the use of the aerodrome at Muharraq, as approved by the ruler of Bahrain, Shaikh Ḥamad bin ‘Īsá Āl Khalīfah.
The air navigation regulations cover: authorisation for aircraft flying over or landing in Bahrain; requirements for aircraft registration, certification, personnel and documentation; submission of licences by aircraft personnel on the demand of the Bahrain authorities; compliance of aircraft with lights and signal regulations, as prescribed in the Convention for Regulation of Aerial Navigation (13 October 1919); access to aircraft by authorised personnel; submission of visitors to procedure prescribed by the Public Health Administration on arrival and departure; notification of intended arrival and departure to the Customs, Public Health and Police Administrations; passport and visa requirements for passengers; declaration of laws applying to the import and export of goods by land and sea being equally applicable to those goods arriving and departing by air; use of law in the contravention of regulations.
Conditions governing the use of the Muharraq aerodrome cover: no acceptance of liability for damage or loss of aircraft, goods or mail, or injury to passengers and aircraft personnel; landing and accommodation fees; fuel and lubricant supplies and their charges. Under the conditions are three schedules: 1) landing fees, assessed according to the maximum weight authorised by the aircraft’s airworthiness certificate; 2) housing fees, assessed according to the span and maximum length of the aircraft; and 3) charges for attendances and facilities, which are not given, having not been set at the time of the printing of the regulations.
