Angelina Jolie Banned From Flying Her Personal Plane by FAA

The Federal Aviation Administration has grounded Angelina Jolie. The Maleficent actress was reportedly barred from flying her own jet after failing to renew its registration earlier this year, according to Page Six.

“FAA records show the registration on N805MX, registered to Chivan Productions, Inc. and Potter, Inc. of Los Angeles, expired June 30, 2013,” they confirmed. “The owners attempted to reregister the aircraft, but the documents were returned for needed corrections. The owners have filed new paperwork, which the FAA is reviewing.”

Maddox Jolie’s middle name is Chivan, and it’s said that the production company that owns the Oscar winner’s jet has the same name.

Jolie’s plane, a Cirrus SR-22 worth $360,000, is considered to be one of the fastest single-engine planes in the world. The 38-year-old actress earned her pilot’s license in 2004 and has since taken flying classes on and off.

“I learned to fly a few years ago in England,” the actress said in 2010. “When Maddox was one and a half, we used to go to the airfield, have lunch and watch the planes. And it dawned on me: I could fly. So I promised him I would fly by his second birthday.”

“It’s the only place I’m completely alone—up in the air, detached from everything,” Jolie said of flying, adding that her lover Brad Pitt had already got his pilot’s license. “Brad loves the technical aspects. He loves the checks, loves all the math. I’m terrible at the math, but I love that I can just go anywhere, have that freedom.”

Angelina Jolie has flown Brad Pitt, 49, Shiloh, 7, Maddox, Pax, 10, Zahara, 8, and twins, 5-year-old Vivienne and Knox, on the private plane, that can reach speeds of 300 mph.

Meanwhile, the filmmaker has made headlines after publishing a statement on the 1000th day of the Syrian crisis, emphasizing the need of having “a sense of responsibility” for the Syrian people.

“Each of the last thousand days has been a living nightmare for the Syrian people,” the UNHCR Special Envoy remarked. “With so much of the country difficult for aid workers and journalists to access and a quarter of a million people stranded in besieged areas, the full story of those 1,000 days has yet to be told. But we do know that over 100,000 Syrians have died. At a minimum, that is equivalent to 100 people being killed each day for 1,000 days. We will look back with shame on this period, and be haunted by our collective failure to prevent this killing of innocents.”

She went on to say that everyone should get engaged in any manner they can:

“This shocking milestone should spur everyone involved in the Geneva peace conference in January to make it a genuine turning point in the conflict: To end the violence and ensure full humanitarian access for Syria’s starving and beleaguered people. With each passing day life gets harder for the millions of Syrian refugees, half of them children. I hope people and governments around the world will feel compassion and a sense of responsibility for them, and provide the increase in aid that is desperately needed,” she said before concluding. “We cannot turn back the clock for the Syrian people. But we have it in our power, as an international community, to prevent another 1,000 days of bloodshed and suffering.”
