For Pilots, By Pilots

  • When the FAA published its U.S. Agents for Service final rule in October 2024, we saw firsthand how it affected pilots like us — international certificate holders suddenly required to designate a U.S. agent just to stay compliant.

    We also saw the market response: established providers charging $75 to $299 per year for what is, fundamentally, a simple mail-handling service. Some charged extra for scanning. Others tacked on "processing fees." For pilots who may receive FAA mail once or twice in a lifetime, these prices felt excessive.

    So we built AeroTrust Agency with a different philosophy: provide essential USAS services at cost, run by pilots who actually hold FAA certificates and understand what it's like to navigate these regulations from abroad. No hidden fees. No upsells. Just straightforward compliance for $29.90 a year.

    Our team includes experienced pilots based in the US and internationally. We handle your FAA mail the way we'd want ours handled — promptly, securely, and with the understanding that a missed FAA notice isn't just an inconvenience, it can affect your ability to fly.

  • As your designated U.S. Agent for Service under 14 CFR Part 3, Subpart C, we:

    - Maintain a U.S. physical address registered with the FAA on your behalf

    - Receive all FAA correspondence addressed to you

    - Notify you immediately by email when mail arrives

    - Scan documents digitally (pay-per-use) or forward physical originals to your international address

    - Provide step-by-step guidance for designating us on the FAA USAS Portal

    Our service covers all FAA certificate types under Parts 47, 61, 63, 65, 67, and 107 — including pilots, flight instructors, mechanics, aircraft dispatchers, medical certificate holders, drone operators, and aircraft owners.
