We have received approval from the Civil Aviation Authority of Botswana (CAAB) as of today. Here is a link to the certificate. This approval is equivalent to the UK CAA, FAA, and EASA certifications we currently possess, but it specifically applies to aircraft registered in Botswana.
The Civil Aviation Authority of Botswana (CAAB) is responsible for the regulation and development of air transport, providing air navigation services, managing airports and advising the government on all aspects of civil aviation.
It is Statutory Corporation established by the Civil Aviation Authority Act of 2004 and commenced full operations as an autonomous regulator on 1st April 2009. The continued existence of CAAB was provided for by the Civil Aviation Act, 2011 which repealed the previous Act establishing the Authority. Before its establishment, most of its functions were performed by the former Department of Civil Aviation Aviation (DCA).
The CAA Act 2004 stipulates that the Authority shall perform its functions in accordance with sound commercial and financial principles, and shall ensure as far as possible, that its revenue is sufficient to meet the expenditure properly chargeable to its revenues.
