Powerful>Why are aircraft owner trusts used and who uses them?

Whilst US legislation stipulates that all aircraft must be recorded in the name of a US national, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has recognised the use of Owner Trusts to make N-registration easier, regardless of whether the recipient of the Trusts is a US national or not. It is generally accepted that the importance anditimacy of the Owner Trust for the US aircraft industry is well established and has been used for many years.

In line with the practice in the sector of private trusts, a bank often acts as a custodian to hold a large number of property items, such as aircraft, on a third party's account. What are Aircraft Owner Trusts used for and who uses them? An aircraft rental company that leases to an airline or company that is not a U.S. national; a listed U.S. company that may not be a U.S. national or uncertain whether it is a U.S. national.

Civilians; airlines that rent aircraft and do not want the disruptions that can arise if the investee transfers the interest in the aircraft to another party; vendors that sell to overseas buyers; aircraft supplies that are greens; aircraft that are under service and need an N-registration; airlines that want to retain freedom for syndicating property rights in the near term while the aircraft remains uninfluenced; corporations and private persons that want to protect private life while meeting legal discovery obligations; overseas shipping; foreigners that want to keep the aircraft commercially available; foreigners that do commercial aircraft trading; aircraft owners that sell to overseas buyers; aircraft suppliers that sell to overseas buyers; aircraft suppliers that are greens; aircraft owners that are in service and need an N-registration; airlines that want to retain freedom for property rights while the aircraft continues to function uninfluenced; corporations and private persons that want to protect private life while meeting legal discovery obligations; offshore shipping; foreigners that want the aircraft to be commercially operated.

The FAA rules demand that all parties are US nationals in order for the relationship to be eligible for US registry.
