The An owner of two or more aircraft can request approval from the Aircraft Certification Publications unit to submit a single consolidated fleet report for some, or all, of their aircraft in lieu of submitting individual reports for each of those aircraft.
Consolidated fleet reports are to be submitted in an approved form and manner to the Publications Unit (the client is to fill out provided a prepopulated XLS sheet to fill in) not later than on the approved due date, and shall contain information for each individual aircraft in the fleet. The approved due date for the consolidated report is 30-March.
Information Information Note:
The owner will not be sent an automated reminder that a consolidated fleet report is coming due. The reminders are handled through system generated emails manually sent to each operator (currently around 60+ fleets on file)
A FLEET is defined by a record on Y59, with 4 digit “fleet numbers” (1st digit represents TC region) These fleet numbers are applied to Y02 records (fleet_id) to tie aircraft together under a single fleet reporting unit.
The effects of an aircraft having a fleet_number on y02 are to
exempt that specific aircraft from processing during an EDM run
prevent that owner from submitting individual aircraft via the website
include ALL of the aircraft, for that owner, in a spreadsheet, in an email when a Consolidated fleet report is launched.
