Los Angeles, Dec 12 (IANS)

Actress Angelina Jolie has reportedly been banned from using her private aircraft after the plane's registration expired earlier this year.

The 38-year-old star's luxurious 219,000 pounds plane has been grounded by the US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) after she failed to renew the aircraft's registration, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

According to the New York Post newspaper, the plane's license expired June 30 and Jolie's Chivan Productions company, which is listed as the plane's owner, didn't get the registration renewal application to the FAA within the required time.

The governing body informed the company in September that their paperwork was submitted late and as a result the plane is said to be without appropriate registration.

Despite not having a valid certificate, the aircraft was reportedly used for a flight to Montana, in the west of the US in October, although the pilot wasn't noted.
