Temporary (Pink) Registration
OK so I've had the Bonanza about a month now, and I'm absolutely in
love with the speed and comfort of this plane. I really want to go up to Canada to visit some relatives, but I dont yet have the permanent FAA registration, and the temporary registration has a big "NOT VALID IF OPERATED OUTSIDE OF THE US" stamped on it. Does anyone know if I can get a waiver or something to allow a trip outside of the US? And, for that matter who really cares? I don't say that to be smart, I mean is it US Customs? Canadian customs? Transport Canada? If Canada doesnt mind, then by the time we come back to the US we will be in the US so wont it all be moot? Anyone dealt with this before? Richard |

Last time I flew into Canada, about 3 months ago, the Customs Canada inspector asked to see the airplane registration and Airworthiness Certificate. If you present a pink slip under those circumstances you probably will be denied entry and may be subject to a fine or worse. Upon returning from Canada, the US Customs insector also asked to see the registration. I don't want to think of what would have happened if I had tried to get by with a pink slip, but it would have been bad. With all the heightened border security, why take a chance? You really don't want to risk having that sweet Bonanza impounded, do you? -Elliott Drucker |

: Call OK City and ask the person at the FAA office what you can do to : expedite your permanat registration.. We had to expedite our registration before our Alaska trip last summer. There are some magic words to utter on the registration if you want it expedited, but I'm sure if you call you can get the status. You definately don't want to try to cross the boarder with improper paperwork. Customs (both sides) checked us all out. The particularly annoying thing was that technically speaking, an FCC radio license was required for the crossing. We got one, even though everyone we talked to (including customs before we left) said nobody ever checked.... and nobody did. By the books it's required though. -Cory -- ************************************************** *********************** * Cory Papenfuss, Ph.D., PPSEL-IA * * Electrical Engineering * * Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University * ************************************************** *********************** |

OK City will issue you a temporary that is valid for international
crossing. Just give them a call a week in advance. -Robert, CFI |

Hey thanks for all the replies & great advice! I think for this weekend we will just fly as close to the border as we can - IAG (Niagara Falls) and drive the 90 minutes from there. Richard |

Richard Richard, What you need is a "fly wire" its faxed copy of the registration from the FAA out of Oklahama City. You can contact 510-748-0122 ext 246 and ask the person who answeres to assist you he is very helpful. Stache |

Stache & NW Pilot - thank you!!
I should have posted this earlier in the week to allow for just a little more time to get the documentation right. As it is we just returned from IAG, and the vehicle traffic on the border from CAN to USA was a bear. Lots of heightened security no doubt due to the recent UK terror plot. It was a great trip otherwise - and what fantastic weather! And this was the sort of "spur of the moment" trip that is just about impossible to do when you are a renter pilot. Thanks to all who posted. Richard |
