Outlines Processes To Be Followed When Such A Determination Is Made
This order provides guidance to FAA personnel responsible for evaluating aircraft wreckage and classifying an aircraft as destroyed or scrapped. This order also provides guidance related to actions that are required to be taken when an aircraft is determined to be destroyed or scrapped.
Such actions include the disposition of aircraft identification plates, aircraft de-registration, and compliance with aircraft recordkeeping requirements. It addresses the re-registration of aircraft that may have previously been classified as destroyed or scrapped and describes the procedures a person may use to dispute a determination that an aircraft has been destroyed or scrapped.
Many current FAA and NTSB forms classify aircraft damage as minor, major, substantial, or indicate that an aircraft has been destroyed. Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) § 47.41a(2) specifies that an aircraft’s Certificate of Registration, AC Form 8050-3, is no longer effective if the aircraft is “totally destroyed or scrapped.” In this order, the FAA considers the report of a “destroyed aircraft” the same as an aircraft reported as “totally destroyed.”
This order provides instructions for FAA employees to assist aircraft owners in complying with the requirements of 14 CFR §§ 45.13 and 47.41 by specifying what constitutes a destroyed or scrapped aircraft and by establishing procedures to properly disposition aircraft wreckage. This order also sets forth a process for a person to dispute a determination that an aircraft has been destroyed or scrapped.
