Background: This advisory circular (AC) provides updated
information on the application of the statutory requirements for public
aircraft operations (PAO) and FAA policy regarding the use of contract
operators. This AC is not mandatory and does not constitute a
regulation. Nothing in this AC changes the requirement to comply with
the statute.
On March 23, 2011, the FAA published a Notice of Policy Regarding
Civil Aircraft Operators Providing Contract Support to Government
Entities (Public Aircraft Operations) (76 FR 16349). This advisory
circular provides additional information on the application of that
policy.
The agency will consider all comments received by April 13, 2012.
Comments received after that date may be considered if consideration
will not delay publication of the advisory circular. A copy of the
advisory circular is available for review in the assigned docket at
http://www.regulations.gov.
Issued in Washington, DC, on February 7, 2012.
John M. Allen,
Director, Flight Standards Service.
