    (a) The operator of a fixed-wing aircraft shall display the required 

marks on either the vertical tail surfaces or the sides of the fuselage, 

except as provided in Sec. 45.29(f).

    (b) The marks required by paragraph (a) of this section shall be 

displayed as follows:

    (1) If displayed on the vertical tail surfaces, horizontally on both 

surfaces, horizontally on both surfaces of a single vertical tail or on 

the outer surfaces of a multivertical tail. However, on aircraft on 

which marks at least 3 inches high may be displayed in accordance with 

Sec. 45.29(b)(1), the marks may be displayed vertically on the vertical 

tail surfaces.

    (2) If displayed on the fuselage surfaces, horizontally on both 

sides of the fuselage between the trailing edge of the wing and the

other appurtenances are located in this area and are an integral part of 

the fuselage side surfaces, the operator may place the marks on those 

pods or appurtenances.
