Published Date: 1/13/2025
Notice
Summary
The FAA is asking for your thoughts on renewing a form that helps track airplane safety inspections required by Airworthiness Directives. This affects anyone who submits special requests to change inspection rules using the FAA’s online system. Comments are due by February 12, 2025, and the process helps keep flying safe without adding extra paperwork or costs.
Analyzed Economic Effects
2 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 1 costs, 0 mixed.
One-hour paperwork per AMOC request
If you own or operate an aircraft and must submit an Alternative Method of Compliance (AMOC) to the FAA, each AMOC report takes about 1 hour to complete. The FAA estimates 25 airworthiness directives per year will require reports affecting about 1,120 owners/operators each, for roughly 28,000 reports and 28,000 total annual reporting hours.
No registration; web submission terms
You may submit an AMOC request via the FAA's ADD External website without registering, but you must consent to the site's "Terms of Use" before proceeding. There is no standard AMOC form; the FAA accepts letters, email, fax, or telephone (telephone submissions must be documented).
