§ 91.203

Civil aircraft: Certifications 

required. 

(a) Except as provided in § 91.715, no 

person may operate a civil aircraft un-
less it has within it the following: 

(1) An appropriate and current air-

worthiness certificate. Each U.S. air-
worthiness certificate used to comply 
with this subparagraph (except a spe-

cial flight permit, a copy of the appli-
cable operations specifications issued 
under § 21.197(c) of this chapter, appro-
priate sections of the air carrier man-
ual required by parts 121 and 135 of this 
chapter containing that portion of the 
operations specifications issued under 
§ 21.197(c), or an authorization under 
§ 91.611) must have on it the registra-
tion number assigned to the aircraft 
under part 47 of this chapter. However, 
the airworthiness certificate need not 
have on it an assigned special identi-
fication number before 10 days after 
that number is first affixed to the air-
craft. A revised airworthiness certifi-
cate having on it an assigned special 
identification number, that has been 
affixed to an aircraft, may only be ob-
tained upon application to an FAA 
Flight Standards district office. 

(2) An effective U.S. registration cer-

tificate issued to its owner or, for oper-
ation within the United States, the 
second copy of the Aircraft registra-
tion Application as provided for in 
§ 47.31(c), or a registration certification 
issued under the laws of a foreign coun-
try. 

(b) No person may operate a civil air-

craft unless the airworthiness certifi-
cate required by paragraph (a) of this 
section or a special flight authoriza-
tion issued under § 91.715 is displayed at 
the cabin or cockpit entrance so that it 
is legible to passengers or crew. 

(c) No person may operate an aircraft 

with a fuel tank installed within the 
passenger compartment or a baggage 
compartment unless the installation 
was accomplished pursuant to part 43 
of this chapter, and a copy of FAA 
Form 337 authorizing that installation 
is on board the aircraft. 

(d) No person may operate a civil air-

plane (domestic or foreign) into or out 
of an airport in the United States un-
less it complies with the fuel venting 
and exhaust emissions requirements of 
part 34 of this chapter.
