supplementary information:

Federal Aviation Administration

Title: Recording of Aircraft Conveyances and Security Documents.

Type of Request: Extension of a currently approved information

collection for which approval has expired.

OMB Control Number: 2120-0043.

Affected Public: Individuals, corporations, states and local

governments.

Abstract: Approval is needed for security conveyances, such as

mortgages, submitted by the public for recording against aircraft,

engines, propellers, and spare parts locations. 14 CFR part 49

establishes procedures for implementation of the recording of aircraft

conveyances and security Documents. Part 49 describes what information

must be contained in a security conveyance in order for it to be

recorded with FAA. The convention on the International Recognition

signatory prevents, by treaty, the export of an aircraft and

cancellation of its nationality marks if there is an outstanding lien

recorded. The Civil Aviation Registry must have consent or release of

lien from the lien holder prior to confirmation/cancellation for

export.

Burden Estimate: The estimated burden in 56,000 hours annually.

Comments: Send all comments regarding whether this information

collection is necessary for proper performance of the function of the

agency and will have practical utility; accuracy of the burden

estimates; ways to minimize this burden; and ways to enhance quality,

utility, and clarity of the information to be collected to the Office

of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget,

725 17th Street, NW., Washington, DC 20503, Attention DOT Desk Officer.

Issued in Washington, DC, on March 7, 1997.
