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,
