notification to Air Traffic Control (ATC) when the incident occurs, as 
well as a broadcast warning of the incident if the aircrew is flying in 
uncontrolled airspace. In addition, the AC requests that the aircrew 
supply a written report of the incident and send it by fax or email to 
the Washington Operations Control Complex (WOCC) as soon as possible.
    Respondents: Approximately 1,100 pilots and crewmembers.
    Frequency: Information is collected on occasion.
