Air Law

The pilot-in-command, whether or not they are operating the controls, is

responsible for the aircraft's operation in accordance with air traffic rules.

However, they may deviate from these rules if the situation makes such

deviation absolutely necessary for safety reasons.

1.3.3.1 Reporting incidents and accidents

The pilot-in-command must report any aviation safety event under (EU)

376/2014 to the Danish Civil Aviation Administration within 72 hours on a flight

safety report.

The pilot-in-command is responsible for notifying the Accident Investigation

Board in the event of an accident or serious flight event.

1.3.3.2 Operational regulations

Operationally, the pilot-in-command is responsible for ensuring that the

applicable checklists are used.

The pilot-in-command is also responsible for using established VFR holding

patterns, VFR reporting points, and VFR routes, where required.
In the event of an emergency during flight, the pilot-in-command must ensure

that all persons on board are briefed on the emergency procedures and actions

required for the situation.

If weather conditions that may affect the safety of other aircraft are observed

during flight, or if any other flying conditions present a safety risk, this must be

reported to air traffic services as soon as possible.

Such reports must include all information that may be significant for the safety

of other aircraft.
