Supplementary Information
OMB Control Number: 2120-0701. Title: Advanced Qualification Program (AQP). Form Numbers: There are no FAA forms associated with this collection. Type of Review: Renewal of an information collection. Background: Under Special Federal Aviation Regulation No. 58, Advanced Qualification Program (AQP), the FAA provides certificated air carriers, as well as training centers they employ, with a regulatory alternative for training, checking, qualifying, and certifying aircrew personnel subject to the requirements of 14 CFR parts 121 and 135. The main goal of the AQP is to improve flight crew performance by providing alternative means of complying with certain rules that may inhibit innovative use of modern technology for flight crewmember training. AQP is continuously validated through the collection and analysis of trainee performance. Data collection and analysis processes ensure that the certificate holder provides performance information on its crewmembers, flight instructors, and evaluators that will enable the certificate holder and the FAA to determine whether the form and content of training and evaluation activities are satisfactorily accomplishing the overall objectives of the curriculum. Respondents: 18 respondents with approved Advanced Qualification Programs. Frequency: Data is collected monthly. Estimated Average Burden per Response: 2 hours. Estimated Total Annual Burden: 432 hours.
