OFFICIAL EXPLANATION
Discretionary, voluntary.
"Aviation authorities" issued "guidelines," or "recommendations," but there is an "absence of definitive laws." The guidelines are not legally required; rather, they are "voluntary" or "discretionary." "Firm" and "unvarying" are the opposite of what is needed. "Insufficient" goes too far-there is no judgment that the guidelines were "not enough," just that they weren't definitive. "Regular" is a versatile word that can mean everything from constituting a pattern to happening habitually or happening frequently.
