Title:
Federal Aviation Regulation part 119—Certification: Air Carriers and Commercial Operators.
Form Numbers:
8400-6.
Type of Review:
Renewal of an information collection.
Background:
The request for clearance reflects requirements necessary under parts 135, 121, and 125 to comply with part 119. 49. 49 U.S.C. 44702 is the FAA's general certificate-issuance authority. It says the Administrator may issue numerous types of certificates—including airman, type, production, airworthiness, airport, air agency, and air carrier operating certificates—and establishes general requirements for applications and certificate issuance.
Title 49 U.S.C. 44705 is the specific statute governing air carrier operating certificates. It tells the FAA when an air carrier certificate shall be issued: after investigation, when the applicant is properly and adequately equipped and capable of operating safely. It also specifies what the certificate must contain.
The FAA will use the information it collects and reviews to ensure compliance and adherence to regulations and, if necessary, to take enforcement action on violators of the regulations.
