FAA Updates Its Procedures for Registration of Aircraft
Aircraft title registration in the United States historically has been a voluntary-based compliance system. But relying on aircraft owners to police themselves in maintaining the accuracy of their registration records has also spawned a system with serious flaws. The Federal Aviation Administration (the “FAA”) in Oklahoma City, OK, which maintains the U.S. aircraft registry (the “FAA Registry”), estimated that approximately one-third of the 357,000 registered aircraft records on the FAA Registry are inaccurate and that many aircraft associated with those records are likely ineligible for U.S. registration.
