Welcome to our July edition of Legalflyer where we once
again review a series of topical issues for the aviation
industry.
In June 2011, Ogilvy Renault and Deneys Reitz joined Norton Rose
Group and we are delighted to have contributions in this edition
from colleagues in both South Africa and Canada.
Our first article is written by Helen Wilmot, director at Norton
Rose South Africa (incorporated as Deneys Reitz Inc), based in
Johannesburg. The article looks at the ever-increasing practice of
leasing aircraft in Africa and the importance of owners and
financiers being familiar with their insurance policies and rights
and in particular, in what circumstances there may be an
indemnifiable claim.
