The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) regulates civil aviation in
New Zealand.
The Minister of Transport establishes
the rules that all:
- – pilots
- – engineers
- – aircraft operators
- – airlines
- – air traffic controllers
- – aerodrome operators
- – regulated air cargo agents
follow to keep aviation safe and secure.
We check that these rules are being complied with and have the
power to take action if they are not.
We monitor safety and security performance throughout the
aviation community so that we can direct our safety efforts where
they are needed most.
We also produce safety publications and run
safety seminars for the aviation community.
