The Federal Aviation Reauthorization Act of 1996 ( P.L. 104-264) authorized the collection of user fees for services provided by the FAA to aircraft that neither take off nor land in the United States, commonly known as overflight fees. The Act permanently appropriated the first $50,000,000 of such fees for the Essential Air Service program and rural airport improvements. To the extent that fee collections fall below $50,000,000 the law requires the difference to be covered by Federal Aviation Administration funds.

Program and Financing (in millions of dollars)

The fund provides direct support for the aviation insurance program (chapter 443 of title 49, U.S. Code). Income to the fund is derived from premium collections for premium insurance coverage issued, income from authorized investments, and binder fees for nonpremium coverage issued. The binders provide aviation insurance coverage for U.S. air carrier aircraft used in connection with certain Government contract operations by the Department of Defense and the Department of State.

The Homeland Security Act of 2002 (P.L. 107-296) required the Secretary to provide additional war risk insurance coverage (Hull Loss and Passenger and Crew Liability) to air carriers insured for Third-Party War Risk Liability as of June 19, 2002, as authorized under existing law. Continuation of this coverage was subsequently directed by several appropriations and authorization acts, the last being the 2010 Federal Aviation Administration Extension Act Part II, which extends the requirement to provide insurance coverage through March 31, 2010. The Budget contains no policy recommendation for the aviation insurance program and displays baseline funding for the program in 2011.

The Secretary is authorized to limit an air carrier's third party liability to $100 million, when the Secretary certifies that the loss was from an act of terrorism. The FAA insurance policy covers: (i) hull losses at agreed value; (ii) death, injury, or property loss to passengers or crew, the limit being the same as that of the air carrier's commercial coverage before September 11, 2001; and (iii) third party liability, the limit generally being twice that of such coverage.
