tech_au is right.
According to the United Nations, a child born in-flight is born in the airplane's registered country. So that means, I'm guessing, the child gains the airplane's registered country's citzenship. If you're born on a Turkish Airlines flight, you're Turkish even if your parents are American or British or anything else for that matter. Perhaps you gain dual citzenship? How stange and complicated, indeed!
Speaking of airplanes, does anyone have any outrageous/horrible/interesting airplane stories? It might help with my novel-in-progress.
