About the Aeronautics Commission

The Michigan Aeronautics Commission is responsible for the general supervision of all aeronautics within the state. It is empowered by state law to make rules and regulations governing all airports, flight schools, and other aeronautical activities. Appointments to the commission are made by the Governor and are subject to the advice and consent of the Senate.

In addition to five members appointed to four-year terms, the commission consists of four statutory members which include the directors of the departments of Transportation, Natural Resources, State Police, and Military Affairs. Additionally, the Transportation Department deputy director for Aeronautics is designated director of the commission.

Regular meetings of the Michigan Aeronautics Commission are held bimonthly in January, March, May, September, and November. The November, January, and March meetings are normally held in Lansing, while the other meetings are held at other locations across the state.
