Commemoration of passing of former ICAO Secretary General Yves Lambert
The ICAO flag is flying at half-mast today to commemorate the 27 March passing of M. Yves Lambert, former Secretary General of ICAO.
Mr. Lambert served as Secretary General of ICAO from 1 August 1976 until 31 July 1988. During his tenure, he showed great diligence and professionalism in leading the Secretariat and is remembered for his kindness and humanity.
Among other achievements, Mr. Lambert played a crucial role in facilitating the adoption of a significant amendment to the Convention on International Civil Aviation in the form of Article 3 bis, which underscores the need for Member States to refrain from using weapons against civil aircraft.

The review will come amid a growing number of announcements about sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) production from the airline and oil sectors.
SAF costs around four times the level of conventional jet fuel but, with production of the cleaner fuel poised to climb in the coming decade, there is potential for that price premium to diminish, according to industry sources.
The ETS provides an incentive to aircraft operators to use SAF that complies with the sustainability criteria by attributing them zero emissions under the scheme.
That reduces an aircraft operator s reported emissions and, in turn, the number of ETS allowances it must buy, according to the EU Aviation Safety Agency.

The latest document much longer than its predecessors is China’s first white paper on development since overhauling crucial aspects of its development approach in 2018.
