application for a Dealer's Aircraft Registration Certificate which, 
under 49 U.S.C. 1405, may be issued to a person engaged in 
manufacturing, distributing, or selling aircraft. Information received 
enables the Civil Aviation Registry to determine eligibility of 
applicant to receive Dealer's Certificate and issue same to correct 
name and address. The respondents are an estimated 1300 individuals or 
companies engaged in manufacturing, distributing or selling aircraft

registering them permanently in his/her name. The estimated annual 
burden is 1000 hours.
    2. 2120-0063, Airport Operating Certificate, FAA Form 5280-1. To 
operate an airport servicing air carriers, an airport must obtain an

verified by inspections. The respondents are an estimated 650 state or 
local governments. The estimated annual burden is 175,000 hours.
    3. 2120-0595, Federal Aviation Administration Acquisition 
Management System (FAAAMS). This acquisition system provides for more 
timely and cost-effective acquisitions of goods, services, and property 
needed to carry out the aviation safety duties and powers of the FAA. 
This acquisition system is needed to address the unique needs of the 
agency and to allow the agency to move quickly and efficiently to 
implement new technology. The respondents are those contractors of 
goods, services, and property desiring to do business with the FAA. The 
estimated number of respondents is 3500 contractors. The estimated 
burden is 350,000 annually.
    4. 2120-0633, Exemptions for Air Taxi and Commuter Air Carrier 
Operations. This collection is used to (1) expedite the Department's 
issuance of operating authority for small charter air carriers, (2) 
protect the competitive interests of these carriers, and (3) relieve 
the safety concerns of the traveling public with regard to the 
operations of these carriers. The respondents are an estimated 2100 air 
taxi operators and commuter air carriers (that are air taxis that offer 
scheduled passenger service.). It is estimated that the burden hours 
are about 1000 hours annually.
