Section 57M

The CAA must refuse to register an aircraft if, on the basis of the information given to the CAA by the applicant, the Secretary of State or a third person, the aircraft appears to be a relevant aircraft. The Secretary of State may direct the CAA to terminate the registration of a relevant aircraft. In so far as a direction under paragraph (2) conflicts with the provisions of Part 3 (Registration and marking) of the ANO, those provisions are to be disregarded. For the purposes of this regulation “relevant aircraft” means— an aircraft owned or operated by a designated person, or an aircraft chartered by demise by a designated person. Any reference in this regulation to registering an aircraft is a reference to registering an aircraft in the register kept by the CAA. In paragraph (4), a “designated person” means a person who is designated under regulation 5 (power to designate persons) for the purposes of either this regulation or regulation 57J (movement of aircraft).
