This thesis examines the historical evolution of air law in Kenya, its content and current challenges. Part One is a historical introduction designed to provide a brief background knowledge and information necessary for a proper understanding of the geo-political and socio-economic foundation of air law in Kenya. It focuses on colonization process of East Africa with particular reference to Kenya. / Part Two discusses the character and content of British air law and regulations exported to Kenya respecting aviation and attempts to analyse at the juridical basis of these regulations, Orders in Council and sub-delegated legislation. Effects on transition to independence on these laws is also examined in this part. / Part Three identifies and analyses the major post-independence developments in air law and the present regulatory system. Kenya's practice with regard to international aviation treaties is also briefly discussed. / The final part is an incursive summary of the preceding parts and possible conclusions drawn therefrom. Here, we also proffer some suggestions we think might be useful to Kenya's overall regulatory system.
