The paper covers the topic of unmanned aerial vehicles in European and international law. Proposed changes and planned new regulations are also included in the overview. After introducing the basic terminology, the article tackles the problem of international responsibility and legal collision. Further analysis presents the division of legal competencies connected with unmanned aviation in the international legal system. In this context the current status of the EASA consultation process has also been presented. The aim of this process is to deliver new regulations for unmanned aerial vehicles in the European Union. The article summarizes the current legal status of unmanned aviation, including also ongoing legislation processes.(original abstract)

Artykuł porusza temat bezzałogowych statków powietrznych w prawie europejskim i międzynarodowym. Proponowane zmiany i planowane nowe regulacje są również uwzględnione w analizie. Po przedstawieniu na początku podstawowej terminologii artykuł porusza problem międzynarodowej odpowiedzialności i kolizji prawnej. Dalsza analiza przedstawia podział kompetencji prawnych związanych z lotnictwem bezzałogowym w międzynarodowym systemie prawnym. W tym kontekście przedstawiono również obecny stan procesu konsultacji EASA. Celem tego procesu jest opracowanie nowych przepisów dla bezzałogowych statków powietrznych w Unii Europejskiej. W artykule podsumowano aktualny stan prawny dot. lotnictwa bezzałogowego, w tym również bieżące procesy legislacyjne.(abstrakt oryginalny)
