Abstract: This information collection involves both reporting and recordkeeping by Part 142 training centers in order to issue pilot certificates. Some of the information collected in this collection is recordkeeping by Part 142 training centers for information that they collect to be able to issue pilot certificates. Applicants for Part 142 Training Center are required to report the information when submitting an application to the FAA. Existing Part 142 Training Centers are required to maintain records of the information in order to issue pilot certificates. Both the application process and the recordkeeping process for training that has occurred is accounted for in this collection. The training center is required by regulation to collect information and keep records to show trainees are qualified for training, testing, or checking. The information contained in this collection is mandatory as required by the regulations mentioned in number 1 of this collection. The entities who must respond are Part 142 Training Centers. The requirements of this collection are recordkeeping and reporting requirements. The collection frequency is as required and may differ per regulatory requirement. For example, training records of trainee must be kept each time they engage in training. The information would be retained by the certificate holder for inspection by FAA personnel or in the case of certification requests, be presented to the FAA. The information is maintained by the certificate holder and subject to review by aviation safety inspectors (operations), designated to provide surveillance to training centers to ensure compliance with airman training, testing, and certification requirements specified in other parts of the 14 CFR. Information may be reviewed on a periodic basis, and at times of special events such as accidents, requests for certificate or course amendments, and the like. If the information were not collected, inspectors would not be able to determine if airmen who are clients are being trained, checked, or tested to meet the safety standards established in other parts of 14 CFR. To date, FAA inspectors have used the information collected to determine and assess regulatory compliance during routine program surveillance.

Short Statement: The number of training centers has decreased from the last submission. Current data also indicates a necessary revision to the number of 121 and 135 certificate holders provided training in a Part 142 training center. The collection has been edited to reflect this change. The agency has separated collection activity into appropriate information collections, there has not been additional forms or applications added. Some of this collection was updated to be reporting instead of recordkeeping as reporting more accurately represents the collection. There has been no change to the collection requirements. It is simply a reclassification for accuracy.
