Why consider an Aircraft Trust?

An aircraft needs special consideration in the Estate Plan. Federal regulations control how an aircraft is registered.  An aircraft trust must meet the FAA citizenship requirements before registration is permitted. If FAA process is not followed, the aircraft will not be in the trust and probate may be required. Your aircraft trust should work with the other parts of your Estate Plan.
