§ 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.
