Agency Information Collection Activities: Requests for Comments; 
Clearance of Renewed Approval of Information Collection: Pilot 
Schools--FAR 141

AGENCY: Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.

ACTION: Notice and request for comments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: 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 an information 
collection. The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment period 
soliciting comments on the following collection of information was 
published on June 14, 2018. The collection involves the submission of 
FAA Form 8420-8, which is used as the base document to initiate and/or 
confirm the status of the schools' eligibility to hold an FAA Form 
8000-4, Air Agency Certificate.

DATES: Written comments should be submitted by October 4, 2018.

ADDRESSES: Interested persons are invited to submit written comments on 
the proposed information collection to the Office of Information and 
Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget. Comments should be 
addressed to the attention of the Desk Officer, Department of 
Transportation/FAA, and sent via electronic mail to 
oira_submission@omb.eop.gov, or faxed to (202) 395-6974, or mailed to 
the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management 
and Budget, Docket Library, Room 10102, 725 17th Street, NW, 
Washington, DC 20503.
    Public Comments Invited: You are asked to comment on any aspect of 
this information collection, including (a) Whether the proposed

accuracy of the

[[Page 45004]]

estimated burden; (c) ways for FAA to enhance the quality, utility and 
clarity of the information collection; and (d) ways that the burden 
could be minimized without reducing the quality of the collected 
information. The agency will summarize and/or include your comments in 
the request for OMB's clearance of this information collection.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Barbara Hall at (940) 594-5913, or by 
email at: Barbara.L.Hall@faa.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 
    OMB Control Number: 2120-0009.
    Title: Pilot Schools--FAR 141.
    Form Numbers: 8420-8.
    Type of Review: This is a renewal of an existing 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 14, 2018 (83 FR 27820). On June 27, 2018, the FAA 
published the final rule Regulatory Relief, Aviation Training devices; 
Pilot Certification, Training, and Pilot Schools; and Other Provisions 
(83 FR 30232). In that rule, the FAA is amending Sec.  141.5(d) to 
allow part 141 pilot schools that hold training course approvals for 
special curricula courses to renew their certificates based on their 
students' successful completion of an end-of-course test for these FAA 
approved courses. In that rule, the FAA further adjusts the number of 
pilot schools based on population changes, and to account for the 
change in burden associated with these new courses.
    We estimate that of the 31 new applications for pilot school 
certificates, 25% will have special curricula courses that will need to 
be accounted for in the passage rate required for issuance of a 
certificate in Sec.  141.5(d). Of the 291 applications for renewal of 
pilot school certificates, approximately 25% would include special 
curricula courses that must now be accounted for in the passage rate 
for renewal of a certificate under Sec.  141.5(d). We estimate that it 
would take .1 hours to add this special curricula course information to 
both initial and renewal applications.

8 new applications at .1 hours each = .8 hours
73 applications at .1 hours each (adding special curr.) = 7.3 hours
171.0 hours + 8.1 hours = 180 total burden hours

    The FAA is also making a burden adjustment to the number of pilot 
schools, increasing the population from 546 pilot schools to 581 pilot 
schools.
    Respondents: 581 pilot schools.
    Frequency: As needed for new applicants; every 24 months for 
renewals of existing pilot schools.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: 0.5 hours, + 0.1 hours for 
special curriculum course information (when applicable).
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 31,837 total burden hours. 2,787 
total annual reporting burden hours, and 29,050 total annual 
recordkeeping burden hours.

    Issued in Washington, DC, on August 23, 2018.
