The Commission investigates accidents and serious incidents to: civil aircraft on the territory of the Republic of Poland and in the Polish airspace; aircraft for which the Republic of Poland is the state of registry, operator, design or manufacturer &#8211; in cases specified in international regulations. \u00a0 In some cases PKBWL may investigate accidents, serious incidents or incidents to other aircraft, if so decided by the PKBWL Chairman. Which aviation occurrences are not investigated by PKBWL?
