Abstract
In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, FAA invites public comments about our intention to request the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval to renew information collection. The collection enables the FAA to monitor the general aviation fleet to anticipate and meet demand for National Airspace System (NAS) facilities and services, assess the impact of regulatory changes on the fleet, and implement measures to assure the safe operation of all aircraft in the NAS. The data are also used by other government agencies, the general aviation industry, trade associations, and private businesses to identify safety problems and to form the basis for research and analysis of general aviation issues.

facilities and services, assess the impact of regulatory changes on the
fleet, and implement measures to assure the safe operation of all
aircraft in the NAS. The data are also used by other government

Form Numbers: 1800-54.
Type of Review: Renewal of an information collection.
Background: The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment
period soliciting comments on the following collection of information
was published on June 24th, 2024 (89 FR 52533). The General Aviation
and Part 135 Activity Survey (GA Survey) provides the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) information on general aviation and on-demand Part
135 aircraft activity. Title 49, United States Code, empowers the
Secretary of Transportation to collect and disseminate information
relative to civil aeronautics, to study the possibilities for
development of air commerce and the aeronautical industries, and to
make long-range plans for, and formulate policy with respect to the
orderly development and use of the navigable airspace, radar
installations and all other aids for air navigation.
The annual GA Survey questionnaire requests the aircraft owner or
operator to provide information on flight activity, flight conditions,
where the aircraft was flown, and aircraft characteristics. Survey
samples are based on statistically selected aircraft registered with
the FAA and located in the U.S. or U.S. territories. The sample is
stratified by aircraft type, FAA region in which the aircraft is
registered, whether the aircraft operates under a Part 135 certificate,
and whether the aircraft was manufactured in the past five years.
Select aircraft types and/or sub-populations are sampled at 100%.
Responses are collected from owners and operators of the sampled
aircraft through two modes: web-form and mailings of the questionnaire.
As a result, aggregated statistical activity estimates are published
and provided for analytical use in a myriad of applications and/or
industries relating to the flight activity and aviation safety.
Respondents: 39,000 aircraft owners.
Frequency: Annually.
Estimated Average Burden per Response: 20 minutes.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 13,000 Hours.
Issued in Washington, DC, on November 13th, 2024.

Program Manager, Federal Aviation Administration, Office of Accident
Investigation & Prevention, Program Management Branch (AVP-220).
