Title: Aircraft Registration.
Form Numbers: Existing AC Forms 8050-1, 8050-1B, 8050-2, 8050-4,
8050-88, 8050-88A, 8050-98 and 8050-117. New AC Forms 8050-88UA and
8050-138.
Type of Review: Revision of an existing information collection.
Background: Public Law 103-272 states that all aircraft must be
registered before they may be flown. It sets forth registration
eligibility requirements and provides for applications for registration
as well as suspension and/or revocation of registrations. The
information collected is used by the FAA to determine eligibility to
register an aircraft and record a security interest in a registered
aircraft.
The Aircraft Registry has determined there is a need to create two
new forms for this collection as follows: AC Form 8050-88UA, Affidavit
of Ownership for Unmanned Aircraft (UA) and AC Form 8050-138,
Declaration of International Operation (DIO).
The AC Form 8050-88UA was created to make it easier for
registration applicants to supply the FAA Aircraft Registry with the
minimal information needed to register a UA. Most UA owners don't have
the required evidence of ownership to register. The affidavit will be
used in lieu of a recordable bill of sale for any new registrations.
The registrant may still submit any other proof of ownership with the
affidavit or declare that evidence of ownership is not available.
The AC Form 8050-138 was created to allow registrants to request
priority handling of their registration documents due to an impending
international flight. The Aircraft Registry is required to process all
incoming documents in the order of their receipt. Newly registered
aircraft may only be flown within the continental United States by
carrying a second copy of the Aircraft Registration Application in the
aircraft unless the aircraft has never been on the U.S. Registry. There
are instances where applicants need to fly aircraft outside the
continental United States. Many of those applicants are major Air
Carriers and small businesses. When an applicant files a DIO, the
applicants' registration documents will be worked on a priority basis,
alleviating any undue hardship. The form will collect the pertinent
information of the scheduled international flight.
Respondents: Approximately 5,000 international flights and 2,000
new UA applicants annually.
Frequency: Information is collected on occasion.
Estimated Average Burden per Response: 15 minutes for each new
form.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 1,750 hours.
Issued in Oklahoma City, OK on August 27, 2024.
