§ 9656. Aircraft and equipment: civilian aviation schools

The Secretary of the Air Force, under regulations to be prescribed by him, may lend aircraft, aircraft parts, and aeronautical equipment and accessories that are required for instruction, training, and maintenance, to accredited civilian aviation schools at which personnel of the Department of the Air Force or the Department of the Army are pursuing a course of instruction and training under detail by competent orders.

(Aug. 10, 1956, ch. 1041, 70A Stat. 583; Pub. L. 97–295, § 1(53), Oct. 12, 1982, 96 Stat. 1301.)

The words “in his discretion and”, “rules”, “limitations”, and “on hand and belonging to the Government such articles as may appear to be” are omitted as surplusage. The words “Department of the Air Force or the Department of the Army” are substituted for the words “Military Establishment”, since the authority is reciprocal.
