The Eastern Caribbean Civil Aviation Authority (ECCAA) is a

Saint John's, Antigua and Barbuda. The agency serves as the aviation accident and incident investigation authority of its jurisdiction.[1][2]

History

The agency originated from the Directorate of Civil Aviation - Eastern Caribbean States. The Government of the United Kingdom appointed the directorate's first director in 1957. The UK-West Indies Associated States (WIAS) Council of Ministers took responsibility for the directorate's operations in 1968. The directorate became an Organisation of Eastern Caribbean States institution when that agency was established in 1982.[3]

In 2002, the participants in the 35th meeting of the OECS Heads of Governments declared that a self-financed, fully autonomous authority should regulate civil aviation. The OECS ministers who were responsible for civil aviation signed the agreement establishing the ECCAA in October 2003. Five OECS member states had passed the Eastern Caribbean Civil Aviation Authority Agreement Act by October 2004, causing the establishment of the ECCAA.[3]

Offices

The headquarters are in

Saint John's, Antigua, Antigua and Barbuda.[4] The ECCAA also operates outstations, which serve the other eight OECS states.[5]

The outstations include the

St. Vincent Outstation at Argyle International Airport.[14]
