ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 3501 
et seq.), the FAA invites public comment on four currently approved 
public information collections which will be submitted to OMB for 
renewal.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before June 13, 2005.

ADDRESSES: Comments may be mailed or delivered to the FAA at the 
following address: Ms. Judy Street, Room 613, Federal Aviation 
Administration, Standards and Information Division, APF-100, 800 
Independence Ave., SW., Washington, DC 20591.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Judy Street at the above address 
or on (202) 267-9895.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995, an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not 
required to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a 
currently valid OMB control number. Therefore, the FAA solicits 
comments on the following current collections of information in order 
to evaluate the necessity of the collection, the accuracy of the 
agency's estimate of the burden, the quality, utility, and clarity of 
the information to be collected, and possible ways to minimize the 
burden of the collection in preparation for submission to renew the 
clearances of the following information collections.
    1. 2120-0009, Pilot Schools--FAR 141. Chapter 447, Subsection 
44707, authorizes certification of civilian schools giving instruction 
in flying. 14 CFR Part 141 prescribes requirements for pilot schools 
certification. Information collected is used for certification and to 
determine compliance. The respondents are applicants who wish to be 
issued pilot school certificates and associated ratings. The current 
estimated annual reporting burden is 28,878 hours.
    2. 2120-0044, 14 CFR part 133, Rotorcraft External-Load Operations. 
This regulation was adopted to establish certification rules governing 
non-passenger-carrying rotorcraft, external-load operations conducted 
for compensation or hire. The applicants are individual airmen, state 
and local governments, and businesses, and the information collected 
will be used to establish their compliance with the regulation. The 
current estimated annual reporting burden is 3,268 hours.
    3. 2120-0633. Exemptions for Air Taxi and Commuter Air Carrier 
Operations. 14 CFR Part 298 requires air carrier operators to obtain a 
certificate of public convenience and necessity from the DOT, with the 
exception of air taxi and commuter air operators. In order to be 
exempted from this requirement, such operators must apply for exemption 
with the DOT. This collection is used to ensure that affected companies 
comply with the requirements under this regulation. The current 
estimated annual reporting burden is 1,020 hours.
    4. 2120-0680, Part 60--Flight Simulation Device Initial and 
Continuing Qualification and Use (NPRM). The collection of this 
information is necessary to ensure safety of flight by ensuring 
complete and adequate training, testing, checking, and experience is 
obtained and maintained by those who operate under 14 CFR Parts 61, 63, 
91, 121, 135, 141, and 142 of the regulation and who use flight 
simulation in lieu of aircraft for these functions. The current 
estimated annual reporting burden is 201,653 hours.
