which would pertain to certain large

airframes and large helicopters, and jet

and turbine engines.

The UNIDROIT Convention and

Aircraft Equipment Protocol together,

when and if adopted and enacted into

law by contracting states would provide

a comprehensive international system to

protect leasing and financing interests.

Significant features might include

default remedies, priorities, and

establishment of an international

registration system to register (record)

international consensual interests, nonconsensual interests, assignments,

prospective assignments, and

subordinations.

It is anticipated that the international

registration system would be primarily

an electronic notice system. As

proposed, the international registration

system is not intended to interfere with

countries’ existing national registration

and recordation systems (e.g., Parts 47

and 49 of the Federal Aviation

Regulations).
