Evaluation of Existing Aircraft Operator Data Bases

Abstract

This report has been prepared in conjunction with the requirement to research existing sources of aircraft operator information. The research determined the availability of aircraft operator information, assessed the factors involved in its acquisition, and evaluated the feasibility of using these data in an International Aircraft Operators Information System for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). This evaluation was completed as part of the first phase of a two-phase program to develop an operational aircraft operator information system. The system will include an operator data base and will use existing data from commercial data suppliers. Results of the search for available aircraft operator data from data suppliers, manufacturers, and other organizations indicate there are a number of data suppliers capable of providing more detail and better scope than those now available to the FAA.
