Just as safety is the most important thing in aviation, safety is the most important in the operation of unmanned aircraft (RPA), and safety operation is the most important in the legal responsibility of the operator of the unmanned aircraft. In this thesis, the legal responsibility of the operator of the unmanned aircraft, focusing on the responsibility of the operator of the unmanned aircraft, was discussed in depth with the issue of insurance, which compensates for damages in the event of an accident First of all, the legal responsibility of the operator of the unmanned aircraft was reviewed for the most basic : definition, scope and qualification of the operator of the unmanned aircraft, and the liability of the operator of the Convention On International Civil Aviation, the ICAO Annex, the RPAS Manual, the Rome Convention, other major international treaties and Domestic law such as the Aviation Safety Act. The ICAO requires that unmanned aircraft be operated in such a manner as to minimize hazards to persons, property or other aircraft as a major principle of the operation of unmanned aircraft, which is ultimately equivalent to manned aircraft Considering that most accidents involving unmanned aircrafts fall to the ground, causing damage to third parties' lives or property, this thesis focused on the responsibility of operators under the international treaty, and the responsibility of third parties for air transport by Domestic Commercial Act, as well as the liability for compensation. In relation to the Rome Convention, the Rome Convention 1952 detailed the responsibilities of the operator. Although it has yet to come into effect regarding liability, some EU countries are following the limit of responsibility under the Rome Convention 2009. Korea has yet to sign any Rome Convention, but Commercial Act Part VI Carriage by Air is modeled on the Rome Convention 1978 in terms of compensation. This thesis also looked at security-related responsibilities and the responsibility for privacy infringement. which are most problematic due to the legal responsibilities of operating unmanned aircraft. Concerning insurance, this thesis looked at the trends of mandatory aviation insurance coverage around the world and the corresponding regulatory status of major countries to see the applicability of unmanned aircraft. It also looked at the current clauses of the Domestic Aviation Business Act that make insurance mandatory, and the ultra-light flight equipment insurance policy and problems. In sum, the operator of an unmanned aircraft will be legally responsible for operating the unmanned aircraft safely so that it does not pose a risk to people, property or other aircraft, and there will be adequate compensation in the event of an accident, and legal systems such as insurance systems should be prepared to do so.

The purpose of international cooperation for launch vehicle between Ukraine and Brazil was to launch Ukraine's Cyclone-4 launch vehicles at the Alcantara cosmodrome in Brazil. Ukraine and Brazil have prepared this cooperation since 1999 and established a joint venture. However, the first launch has been postponed several times. Because it took a lot of time and efforts to negotiate, sign and ratify the cooperation agreement and to regulate the protection of technology transfer to the third countries. Thus, the administrative affairs and diplomatic steps as well as the technical matters should be considered to prepare international cooperation for launch vehicles.

The world-wide principal criteria of aircraft operations is ICAO Annex 6. Operations of Aircraft. Among ICAO Annex 6, Part I is for International Commercial Air Transport - Aeroplanes and it assumes major part of civil aviation. ICAO has been providing Contracting States with SARPs(Standards and Recommended Practices) and monitor each State's reflection degree into their domestic air law, so-called USOAP(Universal Safety Oversight Audit Program). Current ICAO USOAP is Snap-shot method, but it will be changed to USOAP-CMA method from the year of 2013. ICAO USOAP results have overall effects on national aviation industry such as routes, insurance, airlines cooperation and so forth. Low grades of results attract international attention and that leads to flag carrier's operation stoppage, route restriction, airlines cooperation restriction, insurance increase directly or indirectly. Thus it is important to get excellent grades in ICAO USOAP and to maintain confidence. Our government ranked top to get 98.89 grades in 2008 ICAO USOAP but after 2008 the revised provisions have not been reflected sufficiently into our air law. So I would like to grip reflection ratio of ICAO Annex 6 Part I into our domestic air law by using the most updated revised edition on this paper. Together I would like to suggest alternatives for the non-reflected and partially reflected.

This paper outlines a plan to promote South Jeonnam region's logistics capability in connection with the regional logistics bases such as Gwangyang Port, Jangseong Integrated Freight Terminal, Mokpo Port and Muan International Airport. The capability of regional innovation bodies, and industrial innovation generally, needs to be improved by establishing a systematic regional innovation plan. Smaller import and export logistics bases, presently scattered in downtown Gwangju and its suburban area, need to be integrated as soon as possible, in advance of the completion of a traffic network connecting all of the triangle logistics bases. Moreover, plans to develop Muan International Airport to the status of a hub airport need to be established, and its function as an air freight terminal should be strengthened. Gwangyang Port and Mokpo Port should be developed as Korea's key harbors with international logistics bases the two ports, presently conducting simple cargo work, should be transformed into general logistics ports conducting logistics, assembling, trading, and international business by developing their surrounding areas.

Increase of space debris makes low earth orbit(LEO) environment more complex day by day and space situation Awareness(SSA) is becoming more important. As an essential part of SSA, space object surveillance and tracking is studied by many countries including America and Europe. And radar system forms the backbone of an space surveillance and tracking. Currently, Korea operates many LEO satellites like KOMPSAT but does not have dedicated radar systems which provide collision surveillance between satellite and space debris. Korea Aerospace Research Institute(KARI) NARO space center operates launch-vehicle tracking radar system in GOHEUNG and JEJU, respectively. In this paper, we describe developing operation concept to track International Space Station(ISS) using NARO radar and results of tracking. Then, we describe ISS orbit determination using radar tracking data. Lastly, orbit determination result is compares with TLE for analyzing effectiveness of orbit determination.

ICAO(International Civil Aviation Organization) established ICAO LPRs(Language Proficiency Requirements) which is an international standard of English for aviation to promote the aviation safety. The Republic of Korea government amended the aviation law on the 8th of November, 2005 and made EPTA(English Proficiency Test for Aviation) as a follow up action. Purpose of this research is analysing the problem of EPTA and improving it. This investigation takes a look at the current ICAO LPRs and compares the difference between EPTA and other global English proficiency requirements for aviation. The result indicated that there is a discordance between the standards of ICAO and EPTA. Also, the global English proficiency reqirements for aviation and EPTA had differences which required improvements. The study suggests to replace more job relevant questions in the EPTA and reform the level system of EPTA.

본 연구에서는 항공운송산업의 발전을 위하여 항공기 운항의 기반이 되는 국내 공역관리의 실태와 문제점을 검토하고, 이의 개선방안을 도출하고져 하였다. 한국은 세계10위의 국제적 민간항공국임에도 불구하고 경쟁력의 원천인 국내여건이 매우 취약한 실정이다. 국내 공역은 약 40만$km^2$인 대구비행정보구역내에 14개소의 접근관제구역과 16개의 항공로가 있고, 민간항공의 비행을 금지하거니 제한하는 71개소의 통제공역과 47개소의 주의공역이 설정되어 있다. 이와 같이 국내 공역은 매우 협소하고 복잡하며, 국가안보의 특수 상황으로 인하여 공역운영의 효율성이 떨어지며, 항공운항의 비경제성과 비행안전요인이 상존하고 있다. 이를 개선하기 위해서는 국가공역관리체제가 실질적이며 체계적으로 확립되어야 하며, 총체적인 국가이익의 극대화를 위하여 안보목적의 군 관할 공역과 민간항공이 활용 가능한 공역의 활당이 최적화 될 수 있도록 공역구조가 재편되어야 한다. 또한 운영상 효율성을 제고하기 위하여 접근관제구역의 광역화, 항공로체제 개선, 공역설계기준의 제정, 수도권 공역 부족의 해소와 미래항행시스댐 운영에 대한 대비가 필요하다.

항공기사고는 약 70%가 이 착륙단계에서 일어나는 CFIT사고이다. 그러므로 비행장주위의 장애물 관리는 사고방지에 매우 중요하다. 국내에서도 비행장주위의 장애물제한을 항공법에 규정하고 있고, 최근 개정안으로 제시된 동법 시행규칙에서 ICAO의 차폐기준의 적용을 포함하였으나 이 규정만으로는 비행장 주위의 장애물의 체계적인 관리가 어려우며, 특히 국내 비행장 주위의 차폐이론적용에 필요한 세부기준이 명확하지 않다. 본 연구는 항공장애물과 관련된 ICAO의 규정 및 항공선진국들의 관련 규정을 검토 분석하고 국내 현황과 비교분석한 후 국제기준에 비추어 국내 환경에서도 적용 가능한 비행장 공역에서의 항공장애물관리규정(안)의 방향을 제시하였고 특히 논란의 여지가 많은 차폐이론의 적용의 명확한 기준방안을 제시하였다.

한 나라의 우주개발은 막대한 예산과 많은 시간이 소요되기 때문에 정부주도로 연구개발사업을 시작하는 것이 대체적인 선례이다. 하지만 때로는 우주개발을 지역사회나 주변 국가들과의 상황에 따라 생존을 위한 방편으로도 활용될 수 있다. 이러한 우려를 불식시키거나 완화하자는 차원에서 국제사회가 다자간 협의체인 미사일기술통제체제(MTCR, Missile Technology Control Regime)을 1987년부터 시작하여 매년 총회 및 회기간 회의를 통하여 국제사회에서 대량파괴무기의 운반체로 미사일이나 무인항공기 등과 관련된 시스템 및 부품 등의 기술이전 등에 관하여 규제를 하고 있는 것이다. 최근 국제사회에서 핵 프로그램 및 미사일 문제로 논쟁의 핵심이 되고 있는 이란에 대하여 우주개발과 미사일기술통제체제의 규제 등의 관점에서 본 논문을 검토하고자 한다.
