The decision of the DGP now has to go to the ICAO Air Navigation Commission
(ANC) and then to the ICAO Council for their ratification. This process will
not be completed until the first week of December. However, assuming that
the ANC and Council ratify the DGP decision, ICAO will then issue an
addendum to the 2003-2004 Technical Instructions making the air eligibility
marking advisory rather than mandatory. As soon as ICAO publish their
addendum IATA will also publish an addendum to the 2004 edition of the DGR
amending the requirements of Section 7.1.5.8 - Air Eligibility Marking to
make them optional.
