Abstract: This project directly supports the FAA’s strategic goal to provide the next level of safety. By achieving the lowest possible accident rate and always improving safety, all users of our aviation system can arrive safely at their destinations. This rulemaking was promulgated under the authority described in 49 U.S.C. 106(f), which vests final authority in the Administrator for carrying out all functions, powers, and duties of the administration relating to the promulgation of regulations and rules, and 44701(a)(5), which requires the Administrator to promulgate regulations and minimum standards for other practices, methods, and procedures necessary for safety in air commerce and national security. This rulemaking was also promulgated under the specific authority found in the Airline Safety and Federal Aviation Administration Extension Act of 2010 (Public Law 111-216) which directed the FAA to convene an aviation rulemaking committee (ARC) and conduct rulemaking based on the ARC recommendations regarding mentoring, professional development and leadership and command training for pilots serving in part 121 operations and to include in leadership and command training, instruction on compliance with flightcrew member duties under 14 CFR 121.542. The information collection is required for the full implementation of the regulations promulgated under this authority. The FAA expects respondents who have not already complied to modify training programs and training courseware to comply with the final rule requirements.
