Statute overview

About this statute

The High Contracting Parties must take necessary measures to put the Convention’s rules into force. This article defines precautionary attachment of aircraft and says a detention right can count as precautionary attachment under the Convention in certain cases. Some aircraft are exempt from precautionary attachment, with a carve-out for an owner who was unlawfully dispossessed of the aircraft. An adequate bond can stop a precautionary attachment of an aircraft or allow immediate release, in the circumstances stated in the article. A court must decide applications to lift a precautionary attachment in a summary and rapid procedure.
