downloading U.S.
FAA S.F.A. letter - (needed for Canadian Amateur-Built

**** ONE (your country) of the ABOVE is required to be ON BOARD the aircraft to be LEGAL ****
- Also note that Public
Liability
Insurance MUST be carried to fly in Canada
- check minimum
requirements !
( I <think> that $100,000 is
minimum, BUT $1 Million is more reasonable !)
- Customs form 339-A - Annual
User
Fee Decal Request - Aircraft ..
.. MUST be filled in at
time of clearing Customs, unless you already
have a decal.
Fee is $27.50 USD, Credit card only.
Best if applied for ONLINE, and
stuck on before - OR can be obtained from
Customs at time of entry.

beforehand !) Apply at: http://www.cbp.gov/xp/cgov/toolbox/forms/
- Customs form 178 - Private
Aircraft Enforcement System Arrival Report ..
.. MUST be filled
in at time of clearing US Customs ( NO charge ) .
Download - or may be obtained at entry time. Customs
REALLY like these to be filled in already when you
arrive - otherwise, DELAYS can result ! ( You should have EXTRA
forms
ready in case we decide
to return to Canada on the return trip, and re-enter the USA closer
to home. ) D/L & print
from: http://www.cbp.gov/xp/cgov/toolbox/forms/
- Customs MUST be telephoned at
least 2 hours BEFORE arrival - ADCUS on flight
plans is NOT enough
!!
( We will try
to call ONCE, for the whole group, IF we are ALL together ! )

to
cross the border (at most airports ...)
(IF we all fly
together, we can file ONE plan for a "flight of 20" -
OR, different groups of
similar speeds might file as "flight of
6", "1, plus 3", etc. .... )
A transponder is required for
crossing the border (at
most airports ...)
- OR - a "No Transponder Waiver" (Requests
must be faxed at least 7 days
early !)
