Chapter 513, Laws of 1945, created the Aeronautics Commission. Under the reorganization act of 1967, the Commission was merged into the Department of Transportation (WIHV85-A1884) where it became the Division of Aeronautics (WIHV85-A790). The Commission's powers were then vested in the Secretary of Transportation. The Commission itself continued as the Council on Aeronautics, an advisory body to the Department of Transportation.

The Commission was responsible for the supervision of aeronautical activities in the state including their promotion and development and coordination of state and federal activities.
