The following annexes referred to in the convention contain detailed, technical regulations and descriptions. They are, therefore, not reprinted in this Supplement:

Annex (A)—The Marking of Aircraft.

Annex (B)—Certificates of Airworthiness.

Annex (C)—Log Books.

Annex (D)—Rules as to Lights and Signals. Rules of the Air.

Annex (E)—Minimum Qualifications necessary for Obtaining Certificates as Pilots and Navigators.

Annex (F)—International Aeronautical Maps and Ground Markings.

Annex (G)—Collection and Dissemination of Meteorological Information.

Readers interested in these regulations may find them in the British Treaty Series for 1922, No. 2. Amendments of the regulations contained in Annexes (A), (C), (D) and (E) may be found in the British Treaty Series for 1923, No. 14. Annex (H), relating to customs regulations for aircraft, being of a more general interest, is reprinted in this Supplement, p. 208.

page 208 note 10 Note.—Certain divergencies appear to exist between the French, English and Italian texts of Annex H, all three of which have the same value. His Majesty’s Government consider it desirable to call attention to these divergencies and to place on record the following suggestions for corrections in the English text of paragraphs 9,11 and 17 of Annex H, which their representatives will eventually propose for consideration.

Paragraph 9 of the Annex is not clearly intelligible in either the French or English text. The following is suggested as an alternative to the English text of the third sub-paragraph:—

“In the event of the establishment between two or more countries of a Federation of Touring Societies, the aircraft of the said countries shall have the benefit of the Triptyque system.”

In paragraph 11 of the Annex there is a discrepancy between the French text and the English and Italian texts. The French text is apparently the correct version. The English text should therefore probably run as follows:—

“With regard to goods exported in discharge of a ‘temporary admission’ bond, or exported from bonded warehouse or on drawback, the exporter shall produce as proof of exportation a certificate of landing from the customs at the place of destination.”

Paragraph 17 of the Annex apparently refers entirely to Chapter VII of the Air Convention (State Aircraft, Articles 30-33). The English text should therefore apparently run as follows:—

“The provisions of this Annex do not apply to military aircraft visiting a State by special authorisation (Articles 30, 31 and 32 of the Convention), nor to police and customs aircraft (Articles 30 and 33 of the Convention).”
