Aircraft Documents• Certificate of Aircraft

Registration• Before an aircraft can

be flown legally, it must be registered with the FAA Aircraft Registry.

• The Certificate of Aircraft Registration, which is issued to the owner as evidence of the registration, must be carried in the aircraft at all times.

Airworthiness Certificate• The Airworthiness

Certificate must be displayed in the aircraft so it is legible to the passengers and crew whenever it is operated.

• The Airworthiness Certificate is transferred with the aircraft except when it is sold to a foreign purchaser.
