PAPERWORK REDUCTION ACT STATEMENT Title 49 United States Code (49 U.S.C.) § 44703(h), Records of Employment of Pilot Applicants, as amended, requires all air carriers to request FAA records and Air Carrier and Other Records concerning an individual before allowing that individual to begin service as a pilot. 49 U.S.C. § 44703(h)(8) requires the FAA Administrator to promulgate standard forms to request records. The information entered on the standard forms will be used to facilitate the search and retrieval of the required records. It is estimated that the average burden per respondent associated with this collection of Air Carrier and Other Records is 30 minutes. The requirement to collect and evaluate background information on the pilot, before beginning service, is mandatory; however, the use of this form is not, although it is highly recommended. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, this request for information unless a current and valid OMB control number is prominently displayed. The OMB control number assigned to this collection is 2120-0607.
