Dealer's Aircraft Registration Certificates

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice--Dealer's Aircraft Registration Certificate, AC Form 
8050-6.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration will begin assigning 
permanent Dealer's Aircraft Registration Certificate numbers to 
manufacturers and dealers who currently hold an unexpired dealer's 
certificate and any new issuances.

DATES: Effective Date: May 1, 2006.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Walter Binkley, Manager, Aircraft 
Registration Branch (AFS-750), Mike Monroney Aeronautical Center, 
Federal Aviation Administration (AFS-750), Post Office Box 25504, 
Oklahoma City, OK 73125. Telephone (405) 954-3131.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: There are currently more than 3,900 U.S. 
civil aircraft registered using Dealer's Aircraft Registration 
Certificate, AC Form 8050-6, (dealer's certificate). Historically, each 
time a dealer's certificate was issued or renewed, a new certificate 
number was assigned.
    In order to facilitate administration of the Dealer Certificate 
program, beginning May 1, 2006, the FAA's Aircraft Registry will begin 
issuing replacement Dealer Certificates with a permanent number 
assigned to that dealer. Expired Dealer Certificates will not be 
reissued with a permanently assigned number unless restored as 
discussed in the last paragraph of this notice. The assignment of a 
permanent number does not cause the certificate itself to be permanent. 
In accordance with 14 CFR part 47.71, a dealer's certificate continues 
to expire 1 year after the date it is issued.
    The new permanent dealer certificate number will begin with the 
letter ``D'' followed by six numbers, i.e. D000001, The permanent 
certificate number will facilitate linking all aircraft currently 
registered under that dealer's certificates to that dealer. The 
aircraft records will reflect the address shown on the Dealer's 
Aircraft Registration Certificate Application, AC Form 8050-5 (dealer's 
application). Aircraft registered under a dealer's certificate in the 
future will be linked to the dealer by the permanent certificate number 
and show the same address as the dealer's application.
    Any aircraft registered under a dealer's certificate that has 
expired will be placed in an Expired Dealer status. An acceptable 
Dealer's Aircraft Registration Certificate Application, AC Form 8050-5, 
or an Aircraft Registration Application, AC Form 8050-1, and the 
appropriate fee must be submitted to re-register the aircraft in 
accordance with 14 CFR part 47.

    Issued in Oklahoma City, OK on April 7, 2006.

Manager, Civil Aviation Registry.
