The Ministry of Civil Aviation of Egypt is the ministry in charge of civil aviation in Egypt.

Duties

The ministry sets civil aviation regulations, sets airworthiness and all flight rules, and air standards that must be met, making amendments, as needed.[1][2] It ensures Egyptian airline and flight operations follow safety rules such as those put forth by International Aviation - European Common Aviation Area (ECAA).[3]

One of the ministry's most important duties is to conduct investigations of airplane crashes and to provide progress reports on such investigations.[4] Then the ministry negotiates the resumption of flights from the country that suffered the airline crash to or from Egypt.[5]
