The '''Air Traffic Regulatory Organization''' ('''ATRO''') is a specialized agency of the [[League of Nations]] that regulates and coordinates international air navigation, and fosters both planning and development of international {{wp|scheduled air transport}} to ensure safe and orderly growth. ATRO is headquartered in the city-state of [[Alba Concordia]], [[Levantia]], just like its parent body. | |||
ATRO operates through an international council, called the ATRO Council. The ATRO Council adopts international standards and recommendations concerning air navigation, its infrastructure, {{wp|flight inspection}}, and the facilitation of border-crossing procedures to be used in international {{wp|civil aviation}}. ATRO plays a role in internationally streamlining the investigation of {{wp|Aviation accidents and incidents|air accidents}} by defining protocols to be followed by national transport safety authorities. ATRO derives its power from the signing of the 1957 Convention on Safe International Flight Charter. | |||
The Navigation Development Commission (NDC) is ATRA's main technical body, composed of 20 commissioners. These commissioners are provided through nominating by ATRO's contracting states, and appointed through vote by the ATRO Council. The commissioners act as independent experts who do not represent any state or political entity. The NDC directs the development of ATRO's Standards and Recommended Practices through various task groups. Once the commission approves a standard or recommendation, it is sent to the council as ATRO's political body for coordination and consultation with member states before final implementation. | |||
ATRO is uniquely distinct from other international air transport organizations in its international authority among signatory states. | |||
