(7) Emergency services and training.
(c) The FAA does not assess a fee for
any military or civilian overflight operated by the United States Government or by any foreign government.
(d) Fees for overflights through U.S.controlled airspace covered by a written FAA agreement or other binding
arrangement are charged according to

Section 187.53

Calculation of overflight fees.

(a) The FAA assesses a total fee that
is the sum of the Enroute and Oceanic
calculated fees.
(1) Enroute fee. The Enroute fee is calculated by multiplying the Enroute
rate in paragraph (c) of this section by
the total number of nautical miles
flown through each segment of Enroute
airspace divided by 100 (because the
Enroute rate is expressed per 100 nautical miles).
(2) Oceanic fee. The Oceanic fee is calculated by multiplying the Oceanic
rate in paragraph (c) of this section by
the total number of nautical miles
flown through each segment of Oceanic
airspace divided by 100 (because the
Oceanic rate is expressed per 100 nautical miles).
(b) Distance flown through each segment of Enroute or Oceanic airspace is
based on the great circle distance
(GCD) from the point of entry into
U.S.-controlled airspace to the point of
exit from U.S.-controlled airspace
based on FAA flight data. Where actual
entry and exit points are not available,
the FAA will use the best available
flight data to calculate the entry and
exit points.
(c) The rate for each 100 nautical
miles flown through Enroute or Oceanic airspace is:
Time period

Enroute rate

January 1, 2017 to January
1, 2018 ...........................

Oceanic rate

58.45

23.15

Time period

Enroute rate

January 1,2018 to January
1, 2019 ...........................
January 1, 2019 and Beyond ...............................

Oceanic rate

60.07

24.77

61.75

26.51

(d) The formula for the total overflight fee is:
Rij = E*DEij/100 + O*DOij/100
Where:
Rij = the total fee charged to aircraft flying
between entry point i and exit point j.
DEij = total distance flown through each
segment of Enroute airspace between
entry point i and exit point j.
DOij = total distance flown through each
segment of Oceanic airspace between
entry point i and exit point j.
E and O = the Enroute and Oceanic rates, respectively, set forth in paragraph (c) of
this section.

(e) The FAA will review the rates described in this section at least once
every 2 years and will adjust them to
reflect the current costs and volume of
the services provided.

Section 187.55 Overflight fees
payment procedures.

billing

(a) The FAA will send an invoice to
each user when fees are owed to the
FAA. If the FAA cannot identify the
user, then an invoice will be sent to the
registered owner. Users will be billed at
the address of record in the country
where the aircraft is registered, unless
a billing address is otherwise provided.
(b) The FAA will send an invoice if
the monthly (based on Universal Coordinated Time) fees equal or exceed
$400.
(c) Payment must be made by one of
the methods described in Section 187.15(d).

UNITED
STATES

(a) Fixed fees and hourly rates have been
derived using the methodology described
below to ensure full cost recovery for certification actions or approvals provided by the
FAA for persons outside the United States.
