Part I of the Engineering and Air Safety Department Records is concerned primarily with air safety. The files include material pertaining to studies of airports; air traffic control; lighting; accidents; new aircraft evaluations; crew training and related areas; noise abatement; the SST; and all-weather flying. There is much documentation of the work done in these fields by the International Federation of Air Line Pilots Associations and the International Civil Aviation Organization.

Many of these photographs correspond to folders found in Part I of the E&AS Records, the relevant box and folder numbers are noted in parentheses after each folder description.
