If the aircraft is being disposed of as scrap, submit the data plate with the SF-120 to the regional office. The regional manager will forward the data plate to FAA with the de-registration request. When a registered aircraft is disposed of by transfer, donation, or sale to another entity, remove the registration and airworthiness certificates from the aircraft before the transfer is effected. The form modified by the Forest Service for FEPP use is applicable and may be used. The region will forward the form to the national FEPP manager, who will provide it to the national aviation management specialist on a quarterly basis.
Reports are due whenever a change in status occurs.
The regional FEPP managers and the FEPP PMO's are responsible to see that the information on Form 3550 and in PROP are the same. Normally, shelf storage will not exceed a 1-year supply. The regional or area PMO may grant exceptions to this rule. When parts are removed from an aircraft for use on another aircraft, they must be inventoried at least to the warehousing level to provide an audit trail. All State operators of excess property aircraft should be wary of acquiring counterfeit aircraft parts.
