        <RULE_TITLE>Flight Training for Aliens and Other Designated Individuals; Security Awareness Training for Flight School Employees</RULE_TITLE>
        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The interim final rule (IFR) was published and effective on September 20, 2004.  The IFR created a new part 1552, Flight Schools, in title 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR). This IFR applies to flight schools and to individuals who apply for or receive flight training.  After comments were received, exemptions and interpretations were issued.  The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) also issued a notice on April 13, 2009, that prescribes fees for processing requests from alien flight students who take recurrent training.

In the IFR, TSA requires flight schools to notify TSA when aliens and other individuals designated by TSA apply for flight training or recurrent training.  TSA has established standards relating to the security threat assessment process that TSA will conduct to determine whether such individuals are a threat to aviation or national security, and thus prohibited from receiving flight training.  In addition, TSA has established a fee to cover a portion of the costs of the security threat assessments that TSA will perform under this rule.  Finally, TSA has established standards for security awareness training for certain flight school employees.]]></ABSTRACT>
