Notice of Intent To Request Approval From the Office of Management and Budget of a Currently Approved Information Collection Activity, Request for Comments; Fractional Aircraft Ownership Programs
AGENCY:
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), DOT.
ACTION:
Notice and request for comments.
SUMMARY:
The FAA invites public comments about our intention to request the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to approve a current information collection. Fractional Ownership is a program that offers increased flexibility in aircraft ownership. Owners purchase shares of an aircraft and agree to share their aircraft with others having an ownership share in that same aircraft. Owners agree to put their aircraft into a "pool" of other shared aircraft and to lease their aircraft to another owner in that pool. The aircraft owners use a common management company to maintain the aircraft and administer the leasing of the aircraft among the owners.
DATES:
Please submit comments by May 15, 2006.
