Section 106: Dangerous flying

314.Section 106 repeals section 81 of the CAA 1982 which makes dangerous flying of an aircraft an offence. It also has the effect of removing references to the offence elsewhere in that Act. The repeal is made as prosecutions for endangerment are brought by the CAA under the Air Navigation Order 2009 No. 3015 and not under section 81 of the CAA 1982.
