Liability in respect of trespass, nuisance and surface damage

(1) No action shall lie in respect of trespass or nuisance by reason only of the flight of an aircraft over any property at a height above the ground or water which is reasonable having regard to wind, weather and all the circumstances of the case, or the ordinary incidents of such flight so long as the provisions of any regulations made under this Act are duly complied with. (2) Where material loss or damage is caused to any person or property on land or water by, or by a person in, or an article or part of an aircraft or person falling from, an aircraft while in flight, taking off or landing, then unless the loss or damage was caused or contributed to by the negligence of the person by whom it was suffered, damages in respect of the loss or damage shall be recoverable without proof of negligence or intention or other cause of action, as if the loss or damage had been caused by the wilful act, neglect or default of the owner of the aircraft, provided that where material loss or damage is caused as aforesaid in circumstances in which, (a) damages are recoverable in respect of the said loss or damage by virtue only of the foregoing provisions of this sub-section; and (b) a legal liability is created in some person other than the owner to pay damages in respect of the said loss or damage, the owner shall be entitled to be indemnified by that other person against any claim in respect of the said loss or damage.
