The Extradition (Aviation Security) Order 1991
This Order applies the Extradition Act 1989 so as to make extraditable offences under sections 2 and 3 of the Aviation Security Act 1982 (c. 36) (damaging or endangering the safety of aircraft) and section 1 of the Aviation and Maritime Security Act 1990 (endangering safety at aerodromes), attempts to commit such offences and participation in the commission of such offences. It applies to certain States Parties to the Convention for the Suppression of Unlawful Acts against the Safety of Civil Aviation, signed at Montreal on 23rd September 1971 and to the Protocol for the Suppression of Unlawful Acts of Violence at Airports Serving International Civil Aviation, signed at Montreal on 24th February 1988; it does not apply to those States Parties (Commonwealth countries and Parties to the European Convention on Extradition) in relation to which the definition of extraditable offence already includes offences of the kind mentioned in this Order. The Order revokes and replaces the Extradition (Protection of Aircraft) Order 1973 and amendments to that Order.
