14 CFR Part 47 

Cape Town Treaty Implementation 

AGENCY: Federal Aviation 

Administration (FAA), DOT. 

ACTION: Final rule; technical 

amendment. 

SUMMARY: This final rule corrects a 

previously published rule. In the 

original document, an amendment 

inadvertently removed two paragraphs 

relating to the registration of certain 

aircraft. This rule reinstates those two 

paragraphs in their original form. 

DATES: This rule is effective September 

26, 2008.

Boulevard, Oklahoma City, OK 73169;

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

On January 3, 2005, FAA published a 

final rule revising the regulations 

concerning registering aircraft and 

recording security documents (70 FR 

245). These revisions were required by 

the Cape Town Treaty Implementation 

Act of 2004. The Cape Town Treaty 

established a new International Registry 

for registering interests against certain 

aircraft and aircraft engines. The rule 

also made unrelated technical changes 

to other portions of the regulations. 

One of the technical changes affected 

14 CFR 47.35. The amendment should 

have revised paragraph (a) introductory 

text, in order to revise an outdated 

reference to an Act. However, the entire 

paragraph (a) was inadvertently revised, 

which resulted in the loss of paragraphs 

(a)(1) and (a)(2). The information in 

paragraphs (a)(1) and (a)(2) was still 

necessary and should have remained in 

the section. 

Technical Amendment 

This technical amendment merely 

reinstates paragraphs (a)(1) and (a)(2) to 

14 CFR 47.35. The text of these 

paragraphs remains as it was at the time 

of their inadvertent removal. 

Justification for Immediate Adoption 

Because this action reinstates 

paragraphs that were never intended to 

be removed, the FAA finds that notice 

and public comment under 5 U.S.C. 

553(b) is unnecessary. For the same 

reason, the FAA finds that good cause 

exists under 5 U.S.C. 553(d) for making 

this rule effective upon publication.

from the last registered owner, the 

conveyance must be from that owner to 

the applicant.

transactions from the last registered 

owner through each intervening owner
