 Via John Alexander:

The STAT gate underground relay is having problems. It has been reset multiple times- but eventually stops working. We hope to have a repair in the near future.

If it does not work for you, use the Main Gate or Great Lakes gate.

Good News!

The FAA published a direct final rule addressing aircraft registration on November 22, 2022. The rule will be effective on January 23, 2023.  

The FAA is applying this amendment to all aircraft registered under 14 CFR Part 47, Aircraft Registration.

This action will extend the duration of aircraft registration certificates from three years to seven years, in accordance with Section 556 of the FAA Reauthorization Act of 2018. The rule also removes the requirement that the FAA issue a letter extending the validity of aircraft registration.

• All persons who hold a valid and current certificate under Part 47 on January 23, 2023 will have their registration expiration date extended to seven years from the date of issuance.
• The Registry intends to reissue registration certificates before their current expiration date to avoid confusion. However, any certificate with an expiration date later than January 23, 2023 is still valid, and will remain valid until seven years from the date of issuance.
• The second copy of the Aircraft Registration Application (the “pink copy”) will be valid temporary authority to operate until the applicant receives the aircraft registration certificate, the application is denied by the FAA, or 12 months have elapsed during which the registration is pending on that aircraft. The Registry will no longer be issuing letters of extension.
