Reporting of Other Flight Personnel
Department of Transportation, Bureau of Transportation Statistics, Office of
Airline Information
Number 272
Issue Date: 1/6/2004
Effective Date: Immediately
Part: 241
Section:12
This Reporting Directive is issued to clarify the use and meaning of
Objective Account 24 – Other Flight Personnel. CFR Title 14, Part 241 defines the
classification of Objective Account 24 – Other Flight Personnel – as "compensation,
including vacation and sick leave pay, of other flight personnel assigned or held
inactive awaiting assignment to flight status, not responsible for the in-flight
management of aircraft, such as engineers, navigation officers
and cabin attendants".
Engineers and navigation officers would be applied to 5124 and cabin attendants
to 5524 or 6924 depending on the carrier’s DOT reporting grouping.
Given this definition and with the modern aircraft fleet flown by the carriers
which only require a 2 person crew, pilot and copilot, there should be little
if any data recorded on the Schedule P5.2, account 5124.
If you have any questions regarding this directive, please contact either Clay
Moritz on (202) 366-4385 or Bernie Stankus on (202) 366-4387. Both individuals
can be reached by e-mail at clay.moritz@bts.gov
and bernard.stankus@bts.gov
This action is taken under authority delegated in 14 CFR Part 385.19(b) of the
Department’s Organizational Regulations.
