 Freedom to Fly
Airline safety, maintenance and flight procedures are the interest of various regulatory regimes in many countries, with additional guidelines being drafted by such multinational organisms as the International Civil Aviation Organization, (ICAO) and the International Air Transport Association (IATA).
Unfortunately many of the decisions made regarding this country's airline industry, whether made in the context of safety, regional development or specifically to economically regulate Air Canada's competitors and protect the national airline, have had the effect of inhibiting the development of true competition with Canada's airline industry.
Indeed, it is probably fair to say that the Canadian airline industry, (particularly with regard to the ability of airlines being able to choose which cities they wished to serve, with what equipment and via which routes) has seen regulation of literally every conceivable type with the notable exception, until recently, of market forces.

 Aviation Security @ Varrin for Congress
Airlines and their employees must understand and agree with any solution if it is ever to work.
Conversely, if the airline wants to encourage their crews and even passengers to carry guns aboard their airplanes as a form of defense, they should be allowed to do that.
Airlines could implement policies about what kinds of weapons would be allowed, what kind of ammunition could be used and how guns are to be used on board aircraft.

 CNN - Richard Stallman on freedom and the GNU GPL - November 8, 1999
Protecting essential freedoms is always a matter of restricting the actions that would deny them.
Freedom is when you control activities that affect you most closely; to control activities that mainly affect other people is power, power to dominate others.
There are occasions where defending freedom requires a special effort, an effort that requires a motivation beyond material gain.

Regional airlines share several commonalities: 1) they usually operate jets or turboprops with less than 100 seats, 2) they usually fly short hops, and 3) they primarily serve as feeder carriers to the larger "legacy" airlines.
America West pays those airlines a fixed monthly stipend plus additional funds based on the number of flights flown and hours of operation, as well as a percentage of the revenue from the flights they operate under their code-share agreement.

 AI overides Bermuda II? - Airwise Discussion Forum
Sometimes referred to as "beyond rights", This freedom enables airlines to carry passengers to one country, and then fly on to another country (rather than back to their own).
Yes I understand the concept of fifth freedom, what I dont understand is how/why these carriers are allowed to do so via Heathrow when I was (mistakenly it seems) under the impression that they would have to exercise those privileges from Gatwick/Stansted if headed towards the United States due to the constraints of B2.
My conclusion at the time was that Bermuda II does not limit the rights of airlines from third countries who otherwise have permission to operate between the US and the UK.
