Y. J. Foo 0 Report post Posted October 9, 2008 From what I've noticed, every aircraft based in Malaysia needs to have a Malaysian flag and also the word "Malaysia" beneath. This includes AK, FY, Transmile and MASWing's a/c, as well as G/A a/c and choppers. MH (excluding MASKargo) and (formerly) Pelangi Air dont' carry "Malaysia" beneath the flag though. Are there such regulations that these aircraft have to carry both the flag and country name? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are there such regulations that these aircraft have to carry both the flag and country name? No such requirements or regulations exist for that,all ICAO member countries require civil registered airplanes to have the aircraft registration on both sides of the aircraft fuselage and on both on upper and lower wings,.,to have an upper and lower red rotating beacon light,have navigational lights installed on wingtips.while others are not mandotory.

Radzi 2 Report post Posted October 9, 2008 Please do not confuse strobe with the rotating beacon / anti collision lights. I'm quite sure anti collision lights are mandatory. They are the red lights and turned on all the time the engines are on. Strobes, on the other hand, are the white flashing lights which is turned on when entering the runway; they are sometimes turned off even during flight in certain condition.

Malaysian DCA notice no:66 (came out in 1996) is the directive that requires all registered aircraft (only civil 9M-*** I assume) have the Malaysian flag and the wording 'MALAYSIA' painted both sides of the fuselage, preferably towards the front of the aircraft and in a size appropriate to the size of the aircraft.
