This memorandum is in response to a request for approval for a deviation from the current
requirements of 14 calendar/2 weeks in FAA Orders 8100.15, Organization Designation
Authorization Procedures, and 8110.4, Type Certification, respectively to 30 days to send
electronic copies of STC’s to the Technical Writing Section, AIR-612, in the Strategic Policy
Management Branch, AIR-610.

This deviation memorandum authorizes changes to operating limitation #26 in appendix A
of FAA Order 8130.34. The revised limitation should read:
(26) Any incident or accident, or any flight operation that transgresses the lateral or
vertical boundaries of a flight test area, restricted airspace, or other operational boundary,
must be reported to the UAS Safety and Integration Division (AUS-400) within 24 hours,
and to the UAS Policy Team (AJV-P22). AUS-400 can be reached by phone at 844-FLYMY-UA or by email at uashelp@faa.gov. AJV-P22 can be notified via email at 9-AJV-115-
UASOrganization@faa.gov. If this is an emergency, contact the local law enforcement or
call the customer service number at the geographic FAA National Engagement and
Regional Administration office. Contact information for these regional offices can be found
at https://www.faa.gov/about/office_org/headquarters_offices/arc/. Accidents and incidents
must be reported to the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) per instructions
contained on the NTSB web site. Further flight operations must not be conducted until the
incident or accident is reviewed by AUS-420 and AFS-830. AFS-830 will provide the
authorization to resume operations

This order describes AIR’s organizational structure and functions

This advisory circular (AC)
provides guidance for the submission of reports under the Federal Aviation
Administration (FAA) Aviation Safety Reporting Program (ASRP). The ASRP is a
cooperative safety reporting program that invites pilots, controllers, flight attendants
(F/A), maintenance personnel, dispatchers, and other users of the National Airspace
System (NAS), or any other person, to report to the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration (NASA) actual or potential discrepancies and deficiencies in aviation
safety. NASA serves as a third party to receive and process Aviation Safety Reports.
Examples of operations covered by the program include departure, en route, approach,
and landing operations and procedures; air traffic control (ATC) procedures and
equipment; crew and ATC communications; aircraft cabin operations; aircraft movement
on the airport; near midair collisions (NMAC); aircraft maintenance and recordkeeping;
airport conditions or services; and unmanned aircraft operations. The effectiveness of this
program in improving safety depends on the free, unrestricted flow of information from
the users of the NAS. Based on information obtained from this program, the FAA will
take corrective action as necessary to remedy defects or deficiencies in the NAS. The
reports may also provide data for improving the current system and planning for a future
system.
