Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) Characteristics Report

Public Burden Statement
A federal agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, nor shall a person be subject to a penalty for failure to comply with
a collection of information subject to the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act unless that collection of information displays a currently valid OMB
Control Number. The OMB Control Number for this information collection is 21XX-XXXX. Public reporting for this collection of information is estimated to
be approximately 12 minutes per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data
needed, and completing and reviewing the collection of information.
All responses to this collection of information are required to obtain or retain a benefit (49 U.S.C. § 106(l) and (m)). Send comments regarding this burden
estimate or any other aspect of this collection of information, including suggestions for reducing this burden to: Information Collection Clearance Officer,
Federal Aviation Administration, 10101 Hillwood Parkway, Fort Worth, TX 76177-1524.
