Abstract

Since the Paris Agreement of 1919, the world witnessed a lot of changes in terms of airspace utilization. In this paper, It is aimed in essence the development of airspace utilization one more step forward in parallel with the technological pace. To reach this purpose, the most controversial vehicles, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles, are examined depending on their utilization in civil aviation and airspace. The concept of governmentality and its roots also developed. Comparative law methodology is selected as a research model. At the end of the article, it is reached to a frank conclusion that civil aviation needs rules and regulations in a wide and international sense for these vehicles. New policy offers and titles are organized for these vehicles like the Annex of ICAO.
