With the exception of Form 8060-XX, an
air carrier utilizes these forms to report a request for the
applicable records of all applicants for the position of pilot with
their company as needed. The information collected on these forms
will be used only to facilitate search and retrieval of the
requested records and submission is mandatory. Air carriers then
“may use such records only to assess the qualification of the
individual in deciding whether or not to hire the individual as a
pilot.” (49 U.S.C. § 44703(h)(11)). Form 8060-XX is used by pilots
who cannot access the PRD themselves in order to release records to
an air carrier and its use is voluntary until the FAA issues the
PRD final rule. While the FAA expects most pilots will access the
PRD web-based application themselves and release records to air
carriers for review, there will be cases when pilots cannot access
the PRD application. In those cases, the pilot will complete the
Form 8060-XX and submit to the FAA. The form instructs the FAA to
access the PRD on behalf of the pilot and release the records to
the specified air carrier(s). The form may also be used to revoke
consent to the records if needed. The information is collected on
an as needed basis. Information may also be reported by members of
the aviation public to create a MyAccess registration and
authenticate into the PRD.

Labor costs had been
incorrectly entered into ROCIS on previous submissions. However,
this submission adjusts for that mistake. Since there are no
material costs, this submission shows zero for respondent costs.
This is a revision to an existing information collection under OMB
control number 2120-0607. The revision includes information on the
deployment of the Pilot Records Database and the use of a new Form
8060-XX. Form 8060-XX is an alternative to using the Form 8060-10.
The revision also includes information on the MyAccess registration
web portal. PRD completed the System Characterization
E-Authentication Risk Analysis which resulted in a determination of
a privacy level of assurance of level 2 for e-authentication. While
PRD provides only existing FAA pilot records that can be obtained
by a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) Request through the legacy
hard copy process the fact that those records would be automated
led to the determination. The PRD team then determined that a
robust verification application would be needed. PRD team selected
the same verification application tool that is used for the bulk of
FAA programs such as for time and attendance. MyAccess is the
current tool for FAA employee to use with their PIV cards and was
adopted to be used for non FAA users for verification. The MyAccess
team in conjunction with the well-known Lexisnexis verification
subscription service developed the non PIV verification method
adopted by PRD. In order to provide full disclosure the OMB
2120-0607 was amended to include this verification tool.
