Abstract

Human transportation, including travel, tourism, trade and transportation of goods through airspace has become one of the necessities and features of this era. Because of the technological development that the world has witnessed and its reflection on transportation, especially air transportation which is distinguished from other means in terms of the merit of speed, comfort and costs, the criminal protection of civil aviation, in addition to the national protection law, has organized it through international conventions such as Chicago Convention, Geneva Convention on the High Seas, Tokyo and Montreal Conventions. However, national and international protection did not prevent crimes against aircraft, rather, due to these developments, this crime has taken many other new forms. After the September 11 attack, even the aircraft was being used to attack civilians and governmental organs. Although substantive and procedural rules in international and national legislations protect aircraft, new forms of this crime which have emerged shall be addressed and complementary jurisdiction shall be adopted not to leave any legal gaps in criminal protection for aircraft.
