Reference:

Report of the Tenth meeting of the Air Transport Regulation Panel (English, French, Spanish, Russian and Arabic) and its Addendum on the Report of the Air Transport Regulation Panel Working Group on Air Carrier Ownership and Control, September 2002 (English only, for now) formed the basis for much of the documentation.
