Accounting and Reporting Directive
No. 287
Issue Date: 10/31/08
Effective Date: Immediately
As
a party to the Convention on International Civil Aviation (Treaty), the
United States is obligated to provide
ICAO with financial and statistical data on operations of U.S. air carriers (Article
67). The Bureau of Transportation
Statistics' (BTS') Office of Airline Information (OAI) administers this program
for the Department of Transportation (DOT).
Over
99% of the data filed with ICAO is supplied from the Form 41 financial
Schedules and the T-100 traffic Schedules. With these Schedules and the BTS Form EF, the OAI staff compiles 8
different ICAO reports for the carriers listed in Attachment A.
The carriers listed in Attachment A are required to file BTS Form EF (see Attachment B)
for calendar year 2008 with OAI by March 30,
2009. The Form EF data items listed on Attachment A are to be completed by each carrier. Form EF can be downloaded from our website at: http://www.bts.gov/programs/airline_information/forms/ and is included as
Attachment B to this directive.
The data reported on Form
EF must be consistent with the data filed in the Form 41 reports, i.e. Form 41,
Schedule B-1, Account 1668 should equal the sum of Depreciation (Flight and
Ground) reported on Form EF.
Title
14 Code of Federal Regulations (14 C.F.R.) Part 248 requires each carrier to file
annually with OAI two copies of its audit report; if an audit is performed
(annual reports are acceptable in lieu of audit reports). Carriers are requested to submit a third copy
for submission to ICAO; however, if confidentiality is granted to the audit
report, an extra copy is not needed. The
mailing address for Form EF and the audit/annual report is:

This directive is issued
under authority delegated in 14 C.F.R. Section 385.19 (h) of Part 385 of DOT's
regulations. Accounting and Reporting
Directive 283 for 2007 is hereby rescinded.
