(2) All owners and navigators of aircraft shall obey the collision regulations, and shall not carry or exhibit any other lights or use any other fog signals than such as are required by those regulations.

(4) If any damage to property arises from the non-observance by any aircraft of any of the collision regulations, the damage shall be deemed to have been occasioned by the wilful default of the person in charge of the aircraft at the time, unless it is shown to the satisfaction of the Court that the circumstances of the case made a departure from the regulations necessary.
