Sec. 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.
