      Those are the two I’m most familiar with in my profession, at least as far as civilian authorities are concerned. Can’t really say “no” and, I’m pretty sure neither can you. On the other hand, feel free to prove me wrong with a counter example. :)

        Difficult to prove a negative, but I would be surprised if there aren’t at least a few third world countries with lax aviation rules.

        The point, though, is that strong regulations in the countries that are inclined to regulate these things aren’t actually going to stop persistent rich idiots from doing stupid things. The Titan was against regulations in every country that bothers to regulate submersibles, which is why it only operated in international waters. More regulations won’t change that, there’s still nobody to enforce them.
