The agency's aircraft management office must retain this certification for two years. In an emergency situation, prior verbal approval with an after-the-fact written certification is permitted.","path":["Title 41—Public Contracts and Property Management","Subtitle F—Federal Travel Regulation System","CHAPTER 301—TEMPORARY DUTY (TDY) TRAVEL ALLOWANCES","SUBCHAPTER D—AGENCY RESPONSIBILITIES","PART 301-70—INTERNAL POLICY AND PROCEDURE REQUIREMENTS","Subpart I—Policies and Procedures for Agencies That Own or Hire Government Aircraft for Travel"],"source_url":"https://www.ecfr.gov/api/versioner/v1/full/2026-08-25/title-41.xml","current_through":"2026-08-25","vintage":"","retrieved_at":"2026-08-27T02:26:05Z","sha256":"3d7f84399abc3b857ea93e768b85d9f4cb05b83daeb8958462ceb39edfbc3b93","source_id":"us-cfr","stale":true,"prev":"us/41-cfr-301-70.901","next":"us/41-cfr-301-70.903"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
