Technical Implementation Procedures

TIP

Section 02: Regulatory Vocabulary

Definition

The detailed technical and procedural documents that implement a Bilateral Aviation Safety Agreement (BASA) in specific areas such as airworthiness design approvals, production approvals, or maintenance. TIPs define the technical scope, approval procedures, information exchange requirements, and the extent to which each authority may rely on the other's findings. They are the 'working-level' documents that govern how certification validation actually operates between two authorities.
