FAA Safety Awareness and Feedback Survey

Instructions: Read each item carefully then mark the response that best describes your experiences as a certificated general aviation pilot with the services and support provided by the FAA during the past 12 months.

Responses to some items are required in order to skip those items that are not relevant to you. (OMB Control #, expires date) Participation is voluntary and anonymous. Your responses will be kept private to the extent provided by law.
