Landing Fees - FAA aircraft registration delay

Using that logic, I’d wait until they send an invoice. Until then, not your issue for reasons you describe.
 
Previous owner (actually wasnt the guy I bought it from, was previous to him) forwarded the invoice to me along with a note saying he hoped I enjoyed the plane.
 
have you talked with whomever the FBO passes along landing data to?
 
If I was the previous owner, I’d send the bill back with a note that I’m not the owner and let them figure it out from there, so be prepared for a bill several months from now.
 
If the previous owner circular files the invoice, what will happen to them?
 
Yeah...if I were the previous owner... I'd most likely return the bill to the port authority
but if I were pestered with a lot of them I'd probably just trash them
unless...it had been a for sale by owner and I had actually met the buyer and had his contact info...in which case I'd happily just forward it along.

and if I were the buyer in that situation I'd probably go ahead and reach out to the previous owner and let them know as a courtesy, making sure they had my contact info....

it would be Port Authority of NY. . . good luck getting anything from them. Apparently they track the tail numbers and use the FAA aircraft database to send the bill to. . . I imagine the previous owner will forward the invoice, but was trying to get ahead of this so they didnt have to.

Don't get me started on the NY port authority! They sent a several hundred dollar bill for a plane I previously owned. In their own letterhead the tail number of the aircraft being bulled was not the aircraft I previously owned. Was close though. After a dozen or so back and forth emails trying to explain to them my plane has never been to New York, that I did not own the plane at the time of the bill, and that I never owned the aircraft with the tail number in question. They finally stopped. But this was over an 18 month span. Unbelievable the amount of incompetence at a government agency...wait... nevermind. I'd expect nothing less.
