The 2006 FAI General Conference in Santiago, Chile, adopted the following resolution:
Resolution on Airspace
Considering that air sports activities in many countries, especially in Europe, were under grave threat because of constantly encroaching airspace restrictions, that many restrictions were exaggerated in scope and went well beyond the real requirements of flight safety, and that air sports were challenging, healthy and character-building activities that contribute to society as a whole by giving physical and intellectual training to young people, the 100th FAI Annual General Conference resolved:
1. To urge all international and national aviation authorities to have special regard for the effects of any new airspace restrictions on the practice of air sports, and
2. To urge all FAI Members to establish procedures for constant close consultation on airspace matters between national civil aviation and air traffic authorities and national air sport governing bodies.
