Which statement describes Form 337’s applicability to foreign registered aircraft?

• A. It is not authorized for use with foreign-registered aircraft
• B. It is authorized for foreign-registered aircraft located within the United States
• C. It is authorized for use with any foreign-registered aircraft
• D. It is the primary document for exporting aircraft

Answer: (A)

Form 337 is the FAA document used to record major repairs and major alterations that affect the airworthiness of U.S.-registered aircraft, engines, or propellers. It functions as the official FAA record showing that the work has been approved and that the aircraft is returned to service under U.S. regulations. It is not authorized for use with foreign-registered aircraft because those aircraft are governed by the civil aviation authority of their own country, not the FAA. If a foreign-registered aircraft is in the United States for maintenance, the foreign authority would handle the approval, and Form 337 would not apply as the appropriate record for that aircraft. It also isn’t the primary document for exporting aircraft; export documentation follows different procedures and forms.
