Summary
Відповідно до Наказу Міністерства оборони України «Про затвердження Правил штурманського забезпечення польотів державної авіації України» No 100 від 2016 р. Ми поділяємо думку вітчизняних науковців щодо встановлення межі суверенітету держав над повітряним простором приблизно у 100–110 км над рівнем океану, адже вважаємо, що така усталена межа, яка все ж прийнята більшістю держав, має бути регламентована на міжнародно-правовому рівні та стати обов’язковою для держав світу шляхом прийняття відповідного правового акта.
