The development of European civil aviation shows a swing from pure nationalism towards more co‐operation, increasingly institutionalized with the growing unification and prosperity of Europe. But this co‐operation is obstructed by the characteristics of today's civil aviation. Likewise the European Economic Community has been blocking co‐operation in the 22 countries of the European Civil Aviation Conference. The difficulties facing European scheduled air services emphasize the need to re‐model European civil aviation.

    The creation of an air transport system in Europe should agree with the general regulations of the EEC treaty. A system regardless of national frontiers would fit EEC law and should benefit the consumer, as a more efficient network should lead to lower tariffs, if IATA price‐fixing can be abolished.

    Such a system would probably cause substantial problems for those airlines that profit most from today's system.
