Got this from the FAA; did you get a form? If you didn't, but own an aircraft, I'd be interested in knowing if the survey site will let you take the survey; you have to enter your N-number to start.

If you own an aircraft and received a form in the mail in early June for FAA’s 32nd annual GA and Part 135 Activity Survey, please consider taking the time to complete it. The information collected in this survey helps the FAA understand more about GA activities, assess GA’s impact on the National Airspace System (NAS), and determine the need for increased traffic facilities and services. The survey also helps the FAA prepare accurate estimates of aviation safety and uses the data collected to calculate GA fatal accident rates.

In addition to mailing in the survey, selected aircraft owners can also complete it online at http://www.aviationsurvey.org. Use your aircraft N-number to login. Names and information submitted with the survey are kept strictly confidential and will not be published or released in any format that would reveal specific information of the participant.

Are they reassigning the laid-off census workers to complete this survey?:tongue:

You'd think restricting the survey to only "selected N-numbers" would limit the sample size of an already limited population, and thus skew the results.
 
I'm not the owner and I don't know whether or not the owner got a letter but it would let me enter the N-number and came up with the right airplane. I didn't continue with the survey since I'm not the owner or the owner's representative.
 
It seems to be targeted at small jets and higher. I haven't found a single owner who's "GA" airplane is pulling up a survey (yet).

Yep! Got the postcard about two weeks ago. Pretty generic survey from what I remember.

Hehe I got the survey for my glider. Most of the questions didn't really apply to the type of flying I do with it :-)
