Sec. 205.4  Filing of evidence of insurance.



    (a) A U.S. or foreign air carrier shall file a certificate of 

insurance or a complete plan for self-insurance with the Department. 

Each carrier shall ensure that the evidence of aircraft accident 

liability coverage filed with the Department is correct at all times. 

The Department will normally notify the carrier within 20 days of 

receipt if the certificate or plan does not meet the requirements of 

this part. Certificates of Insurance shall be filed on OST Form 6410 for 

U.S. air carriers, including commuter air carriers and air taxi 

operators, and OST Form 6411 for foreign air carriers, including 

Canadian air taxi operators. The Department may return the certificate 

or self-insurance plan to the carrier if it finds for good cause that 

such certificate or plan does not show adequate evidence of insurance 

coverage under this part. Forms may be obtained from and should be filed 

with the Department at the addresses specified in paragraph (c) of this 

section. Forms may also be obtained on the Internet at http://

ostpxweb.dot.gov.

    (b) If the coverage is by type or class of aircraft or by specific 

aircraft, endorsements that add previously unlisted aircraft or aircraft 

types or classes to coverage, or that delete listed aircraft, types, or 

classes from coverage, shall be filed with the Department at the 

addresses specified in paragraph (c) of this section not more than 30 

days after the effective date of the endorsements. Aircraft shall not be 

listed in the carrier's operations specifications with the FAA and shall 

not be operated unless liability insurance coverage is in force.

    (c) Certificates of insurance and endorsements required in 

paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section shall be submitted to the 

Department of Transportation, Federal Aviation Administration, Program 

Management Branch, AFS-260, 800 Independence Avenue, SW., Washington, DC 

20591. For those air carriers that have a mailing address in the State 

of Alaska, the forms shall be submitted to the Department of 

Transportation, Federal Aviation Administration, Alaskan Region 

Headquarters, AAL-230, 222 West 7th Avenue, Box 14, Anchorage, Alaska 

99513. For Canadian air taxis, the forms shall be submitted to the

7th Street, SW., Washington, DC 20590.
