necessary to ensure safety-of-flight by ensuring that complete and 
adequate training, testing, checking, and experience is obtained and 
maintained by those who operate under certain parts of FAA's 
regulations and use flight simulation in lieu of aircraft for these 
functions.

DATES: Written comments should be submitted December 5, 2022.

ADDRESSES: Written comments and recommendations for the proposed 
information collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of 
this notice to www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain. Find this particular

    Background: The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment 
period soliciting comments on the following collection of information 
was published on April 5, 2022 (87 FR 19727). Title 49 U.S.C., Section 
44702 empowers and requires the Secretary of Transportation to issue 
operating certificates and to establish minimum safety standards for 
the operation of air carriers and those to whom such certificates are 
issued. Also, Title 49 U.S.C., Section 44701 empowers and requires the 
Administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to prescribe 
standards applicable to the accomplishment of the mission of the FAA.
    Sponsors who wish to maintain certified training centers are 
mandated to report to this collection. This collection is necessary to 
ensure that those who must comply with Title 14 CFR part 61, part 63, 
part 91, part 121, part 135, part 141, and part 142 are able to provide 
adequate crewmember training and qualification. This collection also 
helps to ensure safety-of-flight by ensuring those who operate under 
these parts of the regulation and use flight simulation in lieu of 
aircraft for these functions, receive and maintain complete and 
adequate training, testing, checking, and experience. The FAA will use 
the information it collects and reviews to ensure compliance and 
adherence to regulations and, where necessary, to take enforcement 
action on violators of the regulations.
    Respondents: 66 Flight Simulation Device Operators.
    Frequency: Annually.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: Varies per Requirement.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 88,541.5 Hours.

    Issued in Washington, DC, on October 31, 2022.
