Abstract:
Each applicant for an aircraft dispatcher certificate or FAA approval of an aircraft dispatcher course must comply with Part 65, Subpart C and Appendix A. All submissions are provided to the responsible Flight Standards Office of the FAA that oversees the certificates and FAA approvals. The collection of this information is mandatory due to regulatory intent and the respondents are each applicant for an aircraft dispatcher certificate (individual) and each applicant for FAA approval or renewal of an aircraft dispatcher course (course operator). The collection is conducted initially, annually and on occasion and would include the collection of information from instructors, students/applicants, and facilities. This collection of information is required to determine whether the course operator and the aircraft dispatcher/applicant meets the regulatory requirements. The FAA uses the collected information to initially approve a course operator and renew on a bi-annual basis to continually ensure that student applicants have been trained properly. The information collected will not be disseminated to the public. This collection includes both recordkeeping and reporting requirements. The information is collected according to the regulatory requirements. The information is shared with the FAA (DOT).
