Summary

The bill makes most aircraft operating in Utah subject to a state registration requirement, with specific exemptions for foreign‑licensed, test‑flight, and large Part 121 aircraft. It also obligates any Part 135 carrier headquartered in Utah to register its aircraft, regardless of where they are based. Additionally, any non‑federally funded airport that wants to open or operate in the state must first obtain a license from the state department, which can approve, reject, or order changes to airport operations.
