The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)'s National Based Aircraft Inventory Program requires the non-Primary NPIAS airports to enter the aircraft that are based at their airports into the program’s website so the counts of based aircraft can be validated and submitted to the 5010 Inspection data.
- Only NPIAS airports with service levels of Commercial Service, Reliever, or General Aviation are required to participate. (Non-NPIAS and the Primary airports should report their based aircraft counts directly to their inspectors.)
- For these non-Primary NPIAS airports, based aircraft counts for single-engine, multi-engine, jets, and helicopters for the FAA's Form 5010-1 (Items 90-93) must come from the data on this site and this site is now a component of their annual inspections.
- Frequently Asked Questions about the National Based Aircraft Inventory Program, including a definition of ‘based aircraft’, are available on the main website’s login page.
