    Title: Certification and Operations: Airplanes With Seating 
Capacity of 20 or More Passenger Seats or Maximum Payload of 6,000 
Pounds or More-14 CFR 125.
    Form Numbers: None.
    Type of Review: Renewal.
    Background: The reporting and recordkeeping requirements under this 
collection are necessary for the FAA to issue, reissue, and amend part 
125 applicants' operating certificates and operation specifications. A 
letter of application and related documents that set forth an 
applicant's ability to conduct operations in compliance with the 
provisions of 14 CFR part 125 are submitted to the appropriate Flight 
Standards District Office (FSDO). Inspectors in FAA FSDOs review the 
submitted information to determine certificate eligibility. If the 
letter of application, related documents, and inspection show that the 
applicant satisfactorily meets acceptable safety standards, an 
operating certificate and operations specifications will be issued. If 
the information were not collected, the FAA could not discharge its 
responsibility to promote the safety of large airplane operators during 
such operations.
    Respondents: 54 part 125 operators (38 certificated operators, 15 
operators issued a Letter of Deviation Authority (LODA), and one new 
applicant per year).
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: 13 minutes.

    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 36,015 hours total; 667 hours per 
respondent.

    Issued in Washington, DC.
