    Title: Aviation Maintenance Technician Schools.
    Form Numbers: FAA Form 8310-6.
    Type of Review: This is a renewal of an information collection.
    Background: 14 CFR part 147. The collection of information includes 
both reporting and recordkeeping requirements related to AMTS. The 
information collected is provided to the certificate holder/applicant's 
appropriate FAA Flight Standards office in order to allow the FAA to 
determine compliance with the part 147 requirements for obtaining and/
or retaining an FAA air agency certificate. For applicants, when all 
part 147 requirements have been met, an FAA air agency certificate is 
issued, with the appropriate ratings. For FAA-certificated AMTS, the 
FAA uses the information collected to determine if the AMTS provides 
appropriate training using an FAA-approved curriculum, keeps records 
that demonstrate each students training, and to ensure that AMTS 
graduates receive an appropriate document showing the graduate is 
eligible to take the FAA tests required to obtain a mechanic 
certificate.
    Respondents: Approximately 10 AMTS applicants, and 182 FAA-
certificated applicants respond to this collection annually.
    Frequency: AMTS applicants respond one time, prior to 
certification. FAA-certificated AMTS respond occasionally after 
certification, and have ongoing recordkeeping requirements.
    Estimated Average Burden per Response: 96 hours.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 54,957 hours/year.

    Issued in Washington, DC, on November 17, 2021.
Tanya A. Glines,
Aviation Safety Inspector, FAA Safety Standards, Aircraft Maintenance 
Division.
