Instructions for Completing the 44807 Exemption Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) Monthly Operational Flight Report
The information on this tab provides general information about this workbook and the definitions for the mission types and flight types. Guidance regarding individual questions in the report is provided in the user guide and via tooltips within the form. The tooltips will appear when the answer field in the form is selected.
Public Burden Statement A federal agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, nor shall a person be subject to a penalty for failure to comply with a collection of information subject to the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act unless that collection of information displays a currently valid OMB Control Number. The OMB Control Number for this information collection is 21XX-XXXX. Public reporting for this collection of information is estimated to be approximately 60 minutes per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information. All responses to this collection of information are required to obtain or retain a benefit (49 U.S.C. § 106(l) and (m)). Send comments regarding this burden estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this burden to: Information Collection Clearance Officer, Federal Aviation Administration, 10101 Hillwood Parkway, Fort Worth, TX 76177-1524.
Complete and submit the monthly operational flight report by the seventh day of each month for the previous month's flights.
The 44807 Exemption report is for respondents who are required to submit a monthly report to the Emerging Technologies, UAS Tactical Operations Office (AJV-115). As with the standard report, the respondent has two options: 1. Aggregate the data for all flights that occur during the month that do not utilize DAA technology in the 44807 Summary Flight Report form. Populate the 44807 Detailed Flight Report form and the DAA Details form at the individual flight level for all flights during the month that do utilize DAA technology. 2. Populate the 44807 Detailed Flight Report form for all flights during the month at the individual flight level and the DAA Details form for flights that utilize DAA technology. Upon submission of these forms, the UAS Integration Office generates the output report to submit to AJV-115 via e-mail.
