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 reinstate an information collection. The collection involves requirements which are necessary to ensure safety-of-flight by ensuring that complete and adequate training, testing, checking, and experience is obtained and maintained by those who operate under certain parts of FAA's regulations and use flight simulation in lieu of aircraft for these functions. This collection is being reinstated due to delays caused by the government shutdown and changeover of personnel.

Aviation Administration (FAA) to prescribe standards applicable to the

adequate crewmember training and qualification. This

use the information it collects and reviews to ensure compliance and
adherence to regulations and, where necessary, to take enforcement
action on violators of the regulations.
