AA Airworthiness inspectors, designated inspectors, engineers, and designated engineers review the required data submittals to determine that aviation products and articles and their manufacturing facilities comply with the applicable requirements, and that the products and articles have no unsafe features. Those products and articles and their facilities that comply with the minimum requirements receive one or more appropriate certificates. A probable unsafe condition could exist for the owner/operator or public if the certification program was not conducted.

There have been no changes to the way burden is calculated since the last validation of this data collection. The data we are collecting is still valuable and there is still a need to collect this data. The annual burden in this submission reflects industry response to this collection. The FAA is moving toward the electronic collection of data for some of its information collections and electronic signatures. However, the IT applications for this electronic collection are still being developed and approximately 1-2 years away from the testing phase.
