The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is seeking public comments on its plan to ask for approval to continue collecting information used to obtain a unique authorization code for the International Registry. This authorization is necessary for transmitting information to the International Registry, which handles interests in mobile equipment like aircraft. Interested parties must complete a specific form to receive this code, and the FAA estimates up to 15,000 submissions each year. Comments on the proposal are open until March 29, 2021, and the collected information supports the requirements of the Cape Town Treaty.
Simple Explanation
The FAA wants to keep collecting some information so people can get a special code to send important details about airplanes to a list in Ireland. They're asking people what they think about this, but they don't explain why it's important or if it can be done in an easier way.
