14 C.F.R. Subpart C—Dealers' Aircraft Registration Certificate
Title 14 - Aeronautics and Space
(a) The FAA issues a Dealers' Aircraft Registration Certificate, AC Form 8050–6, to manufacturers and dealers so as to— (1) Allow manufacturers to make any required flight tests of aircraft. (2) Facilitate operating, demonstrating, and merchandising aircraft by the manufacturer or dealer without the burden of obtaining a Certificate of Aircraft Registration for each aircraft with each transfer of ownership, under Subpart B of this part. (b) A Dealers' Aircraft Registration Certificate is an alternative for the Certificate of Aircraft Registration issued under Subpart B of this part. A dealer may, under this subpart, obtain one or more Dealers' Aircraft Registration Certificates in addition to his original certificate, and he may use a Dealer's Aircraft Registration Certificate for any aircraft he owns. [Doc. No. 7190, 31 FR 4495, Mar. 17, 1966; as amended by Amdt. 47–9, 35 FR 802, Jan. 21, 1970; Amdt. 47–16, 37 FR 25487, Dec. 1, 1972] A manufacturer or dealer that wishes to obtain a Dealer's Aircraft Registration Certificate, AC Form 8050–6, must submit— (a) An Application for Dealers' Aircraft Registration Certificates, AC Form 8050–5; and (b) The fee required by §47.17. [Doc. No. 7190, 31 FR 4495, Mar. 17, 1966, as amended by Amdt. 47–16, 37 FR 25487, Dec. 1, 1972] To be eligible for a Dealer's Aircraft Registration Certificate, a person must have an established place of business in the United States, must be substantially engaged in manufacturing or selling aircraft, and must be a citizen of the United States, as defined by 49 U.S.C. 40102(a)(15). [Amdt. 47–27, 70 FR 245, Jan. 3, 2005] Before using his Dealer's Aircraft Registration Certificate for operating an aircraft, the holder of the certificate (other than a manufacturer) must send to the FAA Aircraft Registry evidence satisfactory to the Administrator that he is the owner of that aircraft. An Aircraft Bill of Sale, or its equivalent, may be used as evidence of ownership. There is no recording fee. A Dealer's Aircraft Registration Certificate is valid only in connection with use of aircraft— (a) By the owner of the aircraft to whom it was issued, his agent or employee, or a prospective buyer, and in the case of a dealer other than a manufacturer, only after he has complied with §47.67; (b) Within the United States, except when used to deliver to a foreign purchaser an aircraft displaying a temporary registration number and carrying an airworthiness certificate on which that number is written; (c) While a certificate is carried within the aircraft; and (d) On a flight that is— (1) For required flight testing of aircraft; or (2) Necessary for, or incident to, sale of the aircraft. However, a prospective buyer may operate an aircraft for demonstration purposes only while he is under the direct supervision of the holder of the Dealer's Aircraft Registration Certificate or his agent. [Doc. No. 7190 31 FR 4495, Mar. 17, 1966; 31 FR 5483, Apr. 7, 1966, as amended by Amdt. 47–4, 32 FR 12556, Aug. 30, 1967] (a) A Dealer's Aircraft Registration Certificate expires 1 year after the date it is issued. Each additional certificate expires on the date the original certificate expires. (b) The holder of a Dealer's Aircraft Registration Certificate shall immediately notify the FAA Aircraft Registry of any of the following— (1) A change of his name; (2) A change of his address; (3) A change that affects his status as a citizen of the United States; or (4) The discontinuance of his business.
