Transportation Department, Federal Aviation Administration
In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, FAA invites public comments about our intention to request the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) approval for a new information collection. The collection involves an electronic distribution of a survey to gather information on passengers' experience during an emergency evacuation or rapid deplaning of a passenger transport category aircraft (14 CFR part 121). The target information to be gathered is data from passengers and cabin crew regarding the effectiveness of the evacuation process from their perspective, including both positive and negative aspects, injuries sustained, passenger behavior, passenger flow, experience with passengers with disabilities and children, and evaluating the decision-making process of passengers choosing to take personal items with them. This information is necessary because this information is not collected as part of a standard post-incident interview unless the incident is classified as an accident. This information collection will provide evidence to support updated guidelines for passenger transport category aircraft emergency evacuation and/or rapid deplaning.
