    Background: The Federal Register Notice with a 60-day comment period soliciting comments on the following collection of information was published on July 23, 2024 (89 FR 59797). A special airworthiness information bulletin (SAIB) is an information tool that the FAA uses to alert, educate, and make recommendations to the aviation community about ways to improve the safety of a product. An SAIB contains non-regulatory, non-mandatory information and guidance for safety issues that do not meet the criteria for airworthiness directive (AD) action under title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 39. An SAIB may include recommended actions or inspections with a request for voluntary reporting of inspection results.

    Respondents: Respondents may include mechanics, type clubs, owners, and operators of aircraft.

    Frequency: Information is collected as needed to acquire additional information on a specific condition.

    Estimated Average Burden per Response: 5 minutes.
