RIN 2120-AH06
Regulation of Fractional Aircraft Ownership Programs and On-
Demand Operations; Technical Amendment
AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration, DOT.
ACTION: Final rule; technical amendment.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The FAA is amending its regulations governing operations of
aircraft in fractional ownership programs. This document corrects a
technical error in the codified text of the regulations.
DATES: Effective June 2, 2011.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For technical questions concerning
this action, contact Everette Rochon, General Aviation and Commercial
Division, AFS-800, Federal Aviation Administration, 800 Independence
Avenue, SW., Washington, DC 20591; telephone: 202-267-7413; e-mail:

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
On September 17, 2003, the FAA published a final rule entitled,
``Regulation of Fractional Aircraft Ownership Programs and On-Demand
Operations'' (68 FR 54520).
In that final rule the FAA updated and revised the regulations
governing operations of aircraft in fractional ownership programs.
Technical Amendment
This technical amendment makes one revision to the final rule. The
language in Sec. 91.1091(f)(2) incorrectly uses the term ``check
pilot'' when the term ``flight instructor'' should have been used.
Accordingly, this amendment revises Sec. 91.1091(f)(2).
Because the section title applies to flight instructors it is
obvious that the use of the term ``check pilot'' in (f)(2) should have
been ``flight instructor''. This technical amendment corrects an
incorrect term and we find good cause exists under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3)
to make the amendment effective in less than 30 days.
List of Subjects in 14 CFR Part 91

Administration amends chapter I of title 14, Code of Federal
