The Isle of Man Aircraft Registry was established to provide a customer focused service for the registration of high quality private and corporate jets and high quality twin turbine-engine helicopters. Isle of Man registered aircraft cannot be used for Commercial Air Transport. As the only dedicated corporate aircraft register in Europe, the Registry offers high international standards and a competitive scheme of charges. We are not able to register fixed-wing aircraft below 5,700 kgs other than for residents of the Isle of Man.
We have sixteen Surveyors resident in Switzerland, USA, UK and the Isle of Man, which enables us to provide an efficient and cost-effective service.
- Our latest Registry Publication explaining the service we offer banks and leasing companies for the registration of commercial airliners, which are parked or between leases can be found here.
- We are receiving a number of requests for information on the forthcoming EU Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS). The following link provides UK information - Department of Energy & Climate Change
- At the end of April 2012, only 5 years since the register was established, we registered our 478th aircraft.
- We have released two new notices to Industry relating to future changes to the Isle of Man Aviation Legislation and Flight Crew Licences in Europe.
