You must carry these documents on board the aircraft.
ID and Proof of CitizenshipEach crew member or passenger must carry identification and proof of citizenship. A passport is ideal. If you were born in the U.S. or Canada you can use a birth certificate and some photo ID, such as a driver's license. If you were born outside the U.S. or Canada, we strongly recommend that you bring your passport.
This is very important. The days of crossing the border with just a driver's license are probably gone for good.
Standardised Validation
Transport Canada (our equivalent of the FAA) requires U.S. aircraft registered under the Experimental category to carry a form that validates the Special Certificate of Airworthiness - Experimental. Just print one of the forms below (they are the same, just different file formats) and carry it on board the aircraft.
