This collection is promulgated under
the authority described in Title 49 of the United States Code,
Subtitle I, Section 106 Subtitle VII, Part A, Subpart I, Section
40103, Sovereignty and use of airspace, and Subpart III, section
44701, General requirements. Under section 40103, the FAA is
charged with prescribing regulations on the flight of aircraft,
including regulations on safe altitudes, navigating, protecting,
and identifying aircraft, and the safe and efficient use of the
navigable airspace. Under section 44701, the FAA is charged with
promoting safe flight of civil aircraft in air commerce by
prescribing regulations for practices, methods, and procedures the
Administrator finds necessary for safety in air commerce. This
collection requires performance measures for certain avionics
equipment on aircraft operating in specified classes of airspace
within the United States National Airspace System. FAA regulations
facilitate the use of ADS-B for aircraft surveillance by FAA air
traffic controllers to accommodate the expected increase in demand
for air transportation.
