Accounting and Reporting Directive
No. 306
Issue Date: 1/1/2012
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).
To meet ICAO needs for electronic submissions and to eliminate the task of manually entering data, BTS requires carriers to e-submit their ICAO Financial BTS Supplemental Form E-F data in the comma separated values (CVS) file format. Each data element is separated by a comma. One thousand is reported as 1000 not as 1,000 as the comma indicates a new data element. To submit the BTS Supplemental Form E-F report, go to the website: https://esubmit.rita.dot.gov/ and following the instructions for creating an account and submitting reports.
The file format for CSV reporting of ICAO Financial BTS Supplemental Form E-F is attached.
This action is taken under authority delegated by 14 CFR 385.19(h).
