Sec.  87.18  Station license required.



    (a) Except as noted in paragraph (b) of this section, stations in 

the aviation service must be licensed by the FCC either individually or 

by fleet.

    (b) An aircraft station is licensed by rule and does not need an 

individual license issued by the FCC if the aircraft station is not 

required by statute, treaty, or agreement to which the United States is 

signatory to carry a radio, and the aircraft station does not make 

international flights or communications. Even though an individual 

license is not required, an aircraft station licensed by rule must be 

operated in accordance with all applicable operating requirements, 

procedures, and technical specifications found in this part.
