AIRCRAFT LOGBOOK

as used in this handbook, is an inclusive term which applies to the aircraft logbook and all supplemental
records concerned with the aircraft.

They may come in a variety of formats. For a small aircraft, the log may indeed be a small 5" × 8"
logbook. For larger aircraft, the logbooks are often larger, in the form of a three-ring binder. Aircraft that
have been in service for a long time are likely to have several logbooks.

The aircraft logbook is the record in which all data concerning the aircraft is recorded. Information
gathered in this log is used to determine the aircraft condition, date of inspections, time on air frame,
engines and propellers. It reflects a history of all significant events occurring to the aircraft, its
components, and accessories, and provides a place for indicating compliance with EASA/FAA
airworthiness directives or manufacturers’ service bulletins.

The more comprehensive the logbook, the easier it is to understand the aircraft’s maintenance history.

CERTIFICATE OF AIRWORTHINESS

-An airworthiness certificate is an FAA document which grants authorization to operate an aircraft in
flight.

Certificate of Airworthiness in the Philippines

ELIGIBILITY

(a) Any registered owner of Republic of the Philippines registered aircraft, or agent of the owner, may
apply for a Certificate of Airworthiness for that aircraft.

(b) Each applicant for a Certificate of Airworthiness shall apply in a form and manner acceptable to the
Authority.

CLASSIFICATIONS OF CERTIFICATE OF AIRWORTHINESS

(a) Standard Certificate of Airworthiness will be issued for aircraft in the specific category and model
designated by the State of Design in the type certificate.

(b) The Authority may issue a Special Certificate of Airworthiness in the form of a restricted certificate or
special flight permit.

AMENDMENT OF CERTIFICATE OF AIRWORTHINESS

(a) The Authority may amend or modify a Certificate of Airworthiness:

(1) Upon application from an operator.

AMT 2202 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE INSPECTION AND SERVICING Page 4 of 15

(2) On its own initiative.

TRANSFER OR SURRENDER OF CERTIFICATE OF AIRWORTHINESS

(a) An owner shall transfer a Certificate of Airworthiness—

(1) To the lessee upon lease of an aircraft within or outside the Republic of the Philippines.

(2) To the buyer upon sale of the aircraft within the Republic of the Philippines.

(b) An owner shall surrender the Certificate of Airworthiness for the aircraft to the issuing Authority
upon sale of that aircraft outside of the Republic of the Philippines.

EFFECTIVE DATES OF A CERTIFICATE OF AIRWORTHINESS

(a) Unless sooner surrendered, suspended, revoked, or a termination date is otherwise established by
the Authority, Certificate of Airworthiness are effective as follows:

(1) Standard Certificate of Airworthiness, special Certificate of Airworthiness, and Certificate of


Airworthiness issued for restricted or limited category aircraft are effective for one year as long as the
maintenance, preventive maintenance, and alterations are performed in accordance with this CAR and
the aircraft is registered in the Republic of the Philippines

(2) A special flight permit is effective for the period of time specified in the permit.

(3) An experimental certificate for research and development, showing compliance with
regulations, crew training, or market surveys is effective for 1 year after the date of issue or renewal unless
the Authority prescribes a shorter period. The duration of an experimental certificate issued for operating
amateur-built aircraft, exhibition, air-racing, operating primary kit-built aircraft, unless the Authority
establishes a specific period for good cause.

(b) The owner, operator, or bailee of the aircraft shall, upon request, make it available for inspection by
the Authority.

(c) Upon suspension, revocation, or termination by order of the Authority of a Certificate of Airworthiness,
the owner, operator, or bailee of an aircraft shall, upon request, surrender the certificate to the Authority.

(d) When an aircraft imported for registration in Republic of the Philippines has a Certificate of
Airworthiness issued by another Contracting State, Republic of the Philippines may, as an alternative to
issuance of its own Certificate of Airworthiness, establish validity by suitable Authorization to be carried
with the former Certificate of Airworthiness accepting it as the equivalent of a Certificate of Airworthiness
issued by Republic of the Philippines. The validity of the Authorization shall not extend beyond the period
of validity of the Certificate of Airworthiness or one year, whichever is less.

CERTIFICATE OF REGISTRATION

aircraft registration, alternatively called a tail number, is a code unique to a single aircraft, required by
international convention to be marked on the exterior of every civil aircraft. The registration indicates the
aircraft's country of registration, and functions much like an automobile license plate or a ship
registration. This code must also appear in its Certificate of Registration, issued by the relevant National
Aviation Authority (NAA). An aircraft can only have one registration, in one jurisdiction, though it is
changeable over the life of the aircraft.

REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS

GENERAL

(a) No person may operate a civil aircraft that is eligible for registration under the laws of the Republic of
the Philippines unless it has been registered by its owner/operator under the provisions of the laws of the
Republic of the Philippines and the Authority has issued a Certificate of Aircraft Registration for that
aircraft which shall be carried aboard that aircraft for all operations.

(b) The certificate of aircraft registration shall be in English.

REGISTRATION ELIGIBILITY

(a) An aircraft is eligible for registration if it is:

(1) Owned by or leased to a citizen or citizens of the Philippines or corporations or associations organized
under the laws of the Philippines at least sixty per centum (60%) of whose capital is owned by Filipino
citizens (as referred in Section 44 of the RA 9497), or a government entity of the Republic of the
Philippines; and

(2) Not registered under the laws of any foreign country.

(b) A foreign-owned or registered aircraft may be eligible for registration, if utilized by members of aero
clubs organized for recreation, sport or the development of flying skills as a prerequisite to any
aeronautical activities of such clubs within the Philippine airspace, and if so authorized by the Authority.

APPLICATION

(a) A person who wishes to register an aircraft in the Republic of the Philippines must submit an
application for aircraft registration to the Authority in a form and manner acceptable to the Authority.
Each application shall:

AMT 2202 AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE INSPECTION AND SERVICING Page 6 of 15


Republic of the Philippines

Piccio Garden, Villamor, Pasay City

(1) Certify as to citizenship as defined under Subpart 4.2.1.2;

(2) Show evidence identifying ownership or lease-agreement (as approved by the Authority); and

(3) Be signed in ink.

(b) The fee provided for by law will be submitted with the application for aircraft registration to the
Authority.

(c) Upon an applicant meeting all requirements for registration, a Certificate of Aircraft
Registration will be issued by the Director of Flight Standards Inspectorate Service.
