FAA Mandating Exterior Registration Numbers on Drones
Small drone owners will have to begin displaying their FAA registration numbers on an outside surface of their aircraft as of February 23.

Effective for flights starting after February 23, owners of small drones will have to begin displaying their FAA registration numbers on an outside surface of their aircraft, the agency announced today. When the FAA first required registration of small drones in 2015, it mandated that the registration marking could be placed in an enclosed compartment, such as a battery case, if it could be accessed without the use of tools.
