The tasks and competences of the President of the CAA comprise among other things cooperation with international civil aviation organizations.

“I treated these tasks as priority since my first days in the CAA. I realized that being a member of the decision-making organs of those organizations will make the Polish voice heard. The fact that I was elected to the ECAC Coordinating Committee whose task is, among other things, the presentation of positions on behalf of 44 states in the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) and in other regions around the world means that our strategy, i.e. Poland perceived internationally as a strong state, has been completed”, Piotr Samson, the President of the CAA said.
