Ministry of Aviation was a department of the United Kingdom government, established in 1959. Its responsibilities included the regulation of civil aviation and the supply of military aircraft, which it took on from the Ministry of Supply.
In 1967, the supply of military aircraft was switched to the Ministry of Technology, while the Board of Trade took on its regulatory responsibilities.
