    Background: The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment 
period soliciting comments on the following collection of information 
was published on August 7, 2020, (85 FR 48057). This collection affects 
certificate holders operating under 14 CFR part 121, 125, 135, and 145 
who are required to report service difficulties and malfunction or

malfunctions, and defects that may be a hazard to the operation of an 
aircraft. The FAA uses this data to identify trends that may facilitate 
the early detection of airworthiness problems. When defects are 
reported which are likely to exist on other products of the same or 
similar design, the FAA may disseminate safety information to a 
particular section of the aviation community.
    Respondents: Approximately 60,000 respondents.
    Frequency: Information is collected on occasion.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: 15 minutes.
