AVIATION SAFETY REPORTING SYSTEM

NASA has established an Aviation Safety Reporting System (ASRS)
to identify issues in the aviation system which need to be addressed.
The program of which this system is a part is described in detail in FAA
Advisory Circular 00-46E. Your assistance in informing us about such
issues is essential to the success of the program. Please fill out this form
as completely as possible, enclose in an sealed envelope, affix proper
postage, and and send it directly to us.

Section 91.25 of the Federal Aviation Regulations (14 CFR 91.25) prohibits
reports filed with NASA from being used for FAA enforcement purposes. This
report will not be made available to the FAA for civil penalty or certificate
actions for violations of the Federal Air Regulations. Your identity strip,
stamped by NASA, is proof that you have submitted a report to the Aviation
Safety Reporting System. We can only return the strip to you, however,
if you have provided a mailing address. Equally important, we can often
obtain additional useful information if our safety analysts can talk with
you directly by telephone. For this reason, we have requested telephone
numbers where we may reach you.

The information you provide on the identity strip will be used only if NASA
determines that it is necessary to contact you for further information. THIS
IDENTITY STRIP WILL BE RETURNED DIRECTLY TO YOU. The return
of the identity strip assures your anonymity.
NOTE:

Thank you for your contribution to aviation safety.

AIRCRAFT ACCIDENTS SHOULD NOT BE REPORTED ON THIS FORM. SUCH EVENTS SHOULD BE FILED WITH THE NATIONAL
TRANSPORTATION SAFETY BOARD AS REQUIRED BY NTSB Regulation 830.5 (49CFR830.5).

Paperwork Reduction Act Statement - This information collection meets the requirements of 44 U.S.C. § 3507, as amended by section 2 of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995. You do not need to answer these questions unless we display a valid Office of Management and Budget control number. The
OMB control number for this information collection is 2700-XXXX and it expires on mm/dd/yyyy. We estimate that it will take about 30 minutes to read the
instructions, gather the facts, and answer the questions. You may send comments on our time estimate above to: P.O. Box 189 Moffett Field, CA 94035-0189.
Send only comments relating to our time estimate to this address.

If you want to mail this form, please fold pages, enclose in a sealed, stamped envelope, and mail to:
