Abstract
This study examines and presents the historical overview and development of Ghana Civil Aviation Authority from 2007 when it decoupled its regulatory and air navigation services provision, from the airport operational functions, till current state. It also explored some significant and key milestones, administrative and operational structures, Director-Generals at various stages, challenges and the future of the Authority. The historical method was employed here because the interest is focused on reporting events and/or conditions that occurred since 2007, while attempting to establish facts in order to arrive at conclusions concerning past events or predict future events. This research was steered by three questions and two hypotheses that try to discover: Why civil aviation was decoupled, what significant milestones there are and what vision is being pursued. This study is to fill-in the gaps identified from the earlier work of Dr. E. R. K. Dwemoh, (after 2007) the first Director of Civil Aviation.
