If you have already completed the survey online or returned the paper version, thank you for participating in this important study. If you have not yet done so, please log onto www.aviationsurvey.org to complete the survey online for the aircraft listed below (use the aircraft N-number as your password). Or you may fill out the paper version we sent and mail it back in the postage-paid envelope provided.








If you cannot complete the survey on the Internet or have misplaced your paper version, please contact Theresa Tennant of PA Consulting Group at 1-800-826-1797 for a replacement copy.

Administration





Dear Aircraft Owner:


The Federal Aviation Administration is conducting the 30th annual General Aviation (GA) and Part 135 Activity Survey for calendar year 2007. Your participation will allow the FAA to measure the size and activity of the general aviation fleet and better understand how people use general aviation aircraft. The survey also allows us to track the success of our safety initiatives, identify areas for improvement, focus our resources, and better serve the GA community.


The enclosed survey is the only source for this important information. The information collected is used by government agencies, industry, trade associations, and private businesses. These organizations use the data to pinpoint safety problems and to form the basis for critical research and analysis of general aviation issues.


Your response to the survey is completely confidential. The FAA has contracted with

PA Consulting Group, an independent research firm, to conduct the survey. The contractor is responsible for mailing out the surveys, processing responses, and analyzing the results.


Enclosed is a questionnaire requesting information for calendar year 2007. Regardless of whether you used this aircraft frequently in the 2007, did not use this aircraft at all, or filled out a similar survey about this aircraft in past years, your response for 2007 is important. I urge you to complete the questionnaire today.


If you prefer to complete the survey online, you can access it at www.aviationsurvey.org and use your aircraft N-number as the log-on password.


Frequently asked questions and answers are on the reverse side of this letter. For further assistance, please call Ms. Theresa Tennant of PA Consulting Group, at 1 (800) 826-1797.


If you still have questions about this survey, please call Mr. Brad Wacker, FAA Safety Analyst,

at 1 (800) 842-8736 ext. 78659.


The FAA and the general aviation community thank you for your participation.


S incerely,





Robert A. Sturgell

Acting Administrator




The 2007 General Aviation and Part 135 Activity Survey


What does the FAA do with this detailed information?

The information collected in this survey helps the FAA to understand more about general aviation activities, assess the impact of general aviation activities on the National Airspace System, and determine the need for increased traffic facilities and services. Federal, state, and local governments; general aviation associations; and private industry and individuals use the summary data for safety analyses, planning, forecasting, and research and development.


Will my name be associated with my survey responses?

ABSOLUTELY NOT! PA Consulting Group will keep your survey responses strictly confidential. Names of individuals are never associated with responses. There is an identification number on your letter only so PA Consulting Group knows who should receive the letter.


Why was I selected for this survey?

Your aircraft was randomly selected from the Civil Aviation Registry. The Registry shows you as a registrant of these aircraft as of December 31, 2007.


In order to better understand general aviation activity of high-use groups, several groups were sampled at 100 percent for the 2007 survey. These groups include: FAR Part 135 aircraft, rotorcraft, turbine aircraft, aircraft five years old or newer, and Alaska-based aircraft.


What if I completed a survey last year?

Even if you were sampled last year, it is very important that you respond to this survey this year. Owners/operators of multiple aircraft represent a key portion of the general aviation population. The newly designed summary form is aimed at reducing the burden of reporting for multiple aircraft, thus encouraging maximum participation.


What should I do if I have a question about how to fill out the survey or have a question we haven’t answered?

Please call Ms. Theresa Tennant of PA Consulting Group, at 1 (800) 826-1797.

Your name was randomly selected from the Civil Aviation Registry. The Registry shows you as a registrant of this aircraft as of December 31, 2007.


What if I completed a survey last year?

If you were randomly sampled to complete a survey last year, it is because the number of aircraft like yours is small so your chances of being selected again were high. Even if you were sampled last year, it is very important that you respond to this survey this year.


What should I do if . . . . ?

IF . . . you are no longer in possession of this aircraft but were the registered owner on December 31, 2007, try to answer all the questions.

IF . . . you are no longer in possession of this aircraft and the aircraft was sold prior to December 31, 2007, please forward this survey to the new owner for response or call Ms. Theresa Tennant of PA Consulting Group, at 1 (800) 826-1797.

IF . . . your aircraft, for whatever reason, was not used during calendar year 2007, answer Question 1 and return the survey. The fact that your aircraft was not flown during the year is just as important as the fact that it was flown.

IF . . . your aircraft was operated primarily as an air carrier (FAR Part 121 or 129), please answer Questions 1 and 2 and return your survey.

IF . . . your aircraft was operated primarily by another person or company (e.g., leased), please (1) obtain the necessary information from the operator, (2) forward this questionnaire to the operator for response, OR (3) call Ms. Theresa Tennant of PA Consulting Group, at 1 (800) 826-1797.

IF . . . your aircraft is a hot air balloon, this survey pertains to you; please answer all questions.

IF . . . you have a question about how to fill out the survey or have a question we haven’t answered, call Ms. Theresa Tennant of PA Consulting Group, at

Dear Aircraft Owner or Operator:

We need your input!

Earlier this summer, we sent you a General Aviation and Part 135 Activity Survey questionnaire to help us compile aircraft activity information for calendar year 2007. We have not yet received your response. Your responses will help the FAA to calculate the size and makeup of the general aviation fleet, the number of hours flown, and the reasons people use general aviation aircraft. The enclosed survey is the ONLY source for this information. To provide accurate information on the general aviation fleet we need to know about ALL aircraft in our sample.

In case the previous mailings never reached you or were misplaced, we have enclosed another identical questionnaire with a return postage-paid envelope for your convenience. Please read the instructions on the back of this letter, complete the questionnaire, and use the enclosed envelope to return it to us today. Be assured that your responses are completely confidential and will be used for statistical tabulation only.

If you prefer to complete the survey online, please use your web browser to access www.aviationsurvey.org (use the aircraft N-number as the password to log on). Also on the reverse side are commonly asked questions and answers.

If you have any questions or need further assistance, please call Theresa Tennant of PA Consulting Group at 1-800-826-1797. If you have not obtained a satisfactory response, please call Brad Wacker, FAA Safety Analyst at 1-800-842-8736 ext. 78659.

Along with the FAA, each association represented below strongly supports this survey and requests your participation. The FAA and the general aviation industry thank you for your participation.
