*OMB Control Number:*                     2120-0707.                

*Title:*                     Survey of Airman Satisfaction with Aeromedical Certification Services.                

*Form Numbers:*                     N/A.                

*Type of Review:*                     Renewal of an information collection.                

*Background:*                     The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), through the Office of Aerospace Medicine (OAM), is responsible for the medical certification of pilots and certain other personnel under 14 CFR 67 to ensure they are medically qualified to operate aircraft and perform their duties safely. In the accomplishment of this responsibility, OAM provides a number of services to pilots, and has established goals for the performance of those services, including a biennial survey designed to meet the requirement to survey stakeholder satisfaction under Executive Order No. 12862, “Setting Customer Service Standards,” and the Government Performance and Results Act of 1993 (GPRA).                

                    The survey of airman satisfaction with Aeromedical Certification Services assesses airman opinion of key dimensions of service quality. These                           ( print page 14317)                        dimensions, identified by the OMB Statistical Policy Office in the 1993 “Resource Manual for Customer Surveys,” are courtesy, competence, reliability, and communication. The survey also provides airmen with the opportunity to provide feedback on the services and a medical certificate application tool they use. This information is used to inform improvements in Aeromedical Certification Services.                

The survey was initially deployed in 2004, and deployed again in 2006, 2008, 2012, 2014, 2016, 2019, and 2021 (OMB Control No. 2120-0707). Across collections, minor revisions have been made to the survey items and response options to reflect changes in operational services and survey technology. To reduce the burden on the individual respondent and potentially improve the response rate, this information collection will be electronic.

*Respondents:*                     5,300 Airmen.                

*Frequency:*                     Biannually.                

*Estimated Average Burden per Response:*                     15 minutes.                

*Estimated Total Annual Burden:*                     15 minutes per respondent, 1,325 total burden hours.                

Issued in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma on March 9, 2022.
