§ 47.16

Temporary registration num-

bers. 

(a) Temporary registration numbers 

are issued by the FAA to manufactur-
ers, distributors, and dealers who are 
holders of Dealer’s Aircraft Registra-
tion Certificates, AC Form 8050–6, for 
temporary display on aircraft during 
flight allowed under Subpart C of this 
part. 

(b) The holder of a Dealer’s Aircraft 

Registration Certificate may apply to 
the Registry for as many temporary 
registration numbers as are necessary 

for his business. The application must 
be in writing and include— 

(1) Sufficient information to justify 

the need for the temporary registration 
numbers requested; and 

(2) The number of each Dealer’s Air-

craft Registration Certificate held by 
the applicant. 

There is no charge for these numbers. 

(c) The use of temporary registration 

numbers is subject to the following 
conditions: 

(1) The numbers may be used and re-

used— 

(i) Only in connection with the hold-

er’s Dealer’s Aircraft Registration Cer-
tificate; 

(ii) Within the limitations of § 47.69 

where applicable, including the re-
quirements of § 47.67; and 

(iii) On aircraft not registered under 

Subpart B of this part or in a foreign 
country, and not displaying any other 
identification markings. 

(2) A temporary registration number 

may not be used on more than one air-
craft in flight at the same time. 

(3) Temporary registration numbers 

may not be used to fly aircraft into the 
United States for the purpose of impor-
tation. 

(d) The assignment of any temporary 

registration number to any person 
lapses upon the expiration of all of his 
Dealer’s Aircraft Registration Certifi-
cates. When a temporary registration 
number is used on a flight outside the 
United States for delivery purposes, 
the holder shall record the assignment 
of that number to the aircraft and 
shall keep that record for at least 1 
year after the removal of the number 
from that aircraft. Whenever the owner 
of an aircraft bearing a temporary reg-
istration number applies for an air-
worthiness certificate under Part 21 of 
this chapter he shall furnish that num-
ber in the application. The temporary 
registration number must be removed 
from the aircraft not later than the 
date on which either title or possession 
passes to another person.
