What documentation is required if an aircraft is owned by a trust or superfund?
A trust or superfund can own an aircraft, but a legal entity must be recorded as registration holder. Therefore, the registration holder of an aircraft owned by a trust or superfund will be recorded in the following manner: ‘[Trustee name], as Trustee for [Trust/Superfund name]’. In order for a trust or superfund to be noted on the Australian Civil Aircraft Register you will need to supply a copy of the Trust Deed (or similar document) that shows the legal names of the Trustee and the Trust.
