46Second, the contested decision relates to a general aid scheme, and according to the case-law, an undertaking which is a competitor of a potential beneficiary of aid authorised under such a scheme does not have locus standi to challenge a Commission decision authorising that scheme (Case T-398/94 Kahn Scheepvaart v Commission [1996] ECR II-477). That must apply a fortiori to non-competitor undertakings and to the associations which represent them. It also relies on the judgment in Case T-86/96 Arbeitsgemeinschaft Deutscher Luftfahrt-Unternehmen and Hapag-Lloyd v Commission [1999] ECR II-179, paragraph 45, in which the Court of First Instance held that potential beneficiaries of a general aid scheme were not individually concerned by a Commission decision relating to that scheme.
