I can't get my head around one fact, what is sovereignty in Air Law? The territory is the land & the sea, is Sovereignty the airspace above that territory or is it where their government have jurisdiction over that Territory? I just want to get it in my head for the exams. Cheers, Ian

Sovereignty essentially gives a sovereign state control over the airspace above its territory.

Hardly a week goes by that I don't need to instantly know about sovereignty and territory in the area around Swaffham.

Good job I studied well back those thirty years or so.
