and determining their competency;
(_h_) as to the fees to be paid on the grant of a certificate and by
candidates entering for examination.
(3) The regulations shall provide for different certificates of

and a navigator or other officer shall not be deemed to be duly
certificated in respect of an aircraft of any class unless he is
the holder for the time being of a valid certificate of competency
under this section in respect of that class of craft, and of a grade
appropriate to his station in the aircraft or of a higher grade.
(4) If any person—
(_a_) navigates or allows to be navigated any aircraft not provided
with a duly certificated navigator, and, in the case of any aircraft
which is under the regulations required to be provided with other
certificated officers, without such other officers; or,
(_b_) having been engaged as a navigator or other officer required to
be certificated, navigates, or takes part in the navigation of, an
aircraft without being duly certificated; or
(_c_) employs a person as a navigator or as an officer in

COLLISION REGULATIONS
6—(1) The Board of Trade may make regulations (hereinafter referred to
as collision regulations) for the prevention of collisions in the air,
and may thereby regulate the lights to be carried and exhibited, the
fog signals to be carried and used, and the steering and flying rules
to be observed by aircraft.
(2) All owners and navigators of aircraft shall obey the collision
regulations, and shall not carry or exhibit any other lights or use any
other fog signals than such as are required by those regulations.
(3) If an infringement of the collision regulations is caused by the
wilful default of the owner or navigator of the aircraft, the owner or
navigator of the aircraft shall in respect of each offence be guilty of
a misdemeanour.
(4) If any damage to property arises from the non-observance by any
aircraft of any of the collision regulations, the damage shall be
deemed to have been occasioned by the wilful default of the person
in charge of the aircraft at the time, unless it is shown to the
satisfaction of the Court that the circumstances of the case made a
departure from the regulations necessary.
