Accident/Incident and Suspected Unapproved Parts Investigation Information Requests Clause Samples
This clause establishes the procedures and obligations for responding to information requests related to accidents, incidents, or suspected unapproved parts. It typically requires parties to promptly provide relevant data, documentation, or access to records when such investigations are initiated by regulatory authorities or other designated entities. For example, if a component failure leads to an aircraft incident, the supplier may be required to share manufacturing records or inspection reports. The core function of this clause is to ensure transparency and cooperation during safety investigations, thereby supporting regulatory compliance and enhancing aviation safety.
Accident/Incident and Suspected Unapproved Parts Investigation Information Requests. (a) When investigating in-service incidents, accidents, or suspected unapproved parts involving a product, part, or appliance imported under these Implementation Procedures, the FAA or EASA may request information from EASA or the FAA product responsible Directorate as applicable (see listing in Appendix A). EASA shall coordinate with the appropriate AA to obtain any necessary support.
(b) In case of a major incident/accident, FAA and EASA shall cooperate to address urgent information needs. Following a major accident/incident, upon receipt of a request for urgent information the FAA or EASA shall provide the requested information. EASA and the FAA shall establish individual focal points to respond to each other’s questions and ensure that timely communication occurs. The FAA or EASA may request information directly from a manufacturer because immediate contact with the appropriate focal points cannot be made. In such cases, notification of this action shall be made as soon as possible. Either the FAA or EASA, as applicable, shall assist in ensuring that their manufacturers provide requested information expeditiously.
Accident/Incident and Suspected Unapproved Parts Investigation Information Requests. When either the FAA or CAAI needs information for the investigation of service incidents, accidents, or suspected unapproved parts involving a product, part, or appliance imported under these Implementation Procedures, the request for the information should be directed to the appropriate office of the exporting authority. In turn, upon receipt of the request for information, the exporting authority should immediately do everything necessary to make sure the requested information is provided in a timely manner. If urgency requires that either the FAA or CAAI requests the information directly from the manufacturer because immediate contacts cannot be made with the exporting authority, the importing authority shall inform its counterpart authority of this action as soon as possible.
Accident/Incident and Suspected Unapproved Parts Investigation Information Requests. When either the FAA or RCAA needs information for the investigation of service incidents, accidents, or suspected unapproved parts involving a product, part, or appliance imported under these Implementation Procedures, the request for the information should be directed to the appropriate office of the exporting authority. In turn, upon receipt of the request for information, the exporting authority should immediately do everything necessary to make sure the requested information is provided in a timely manner. If urgency requires that the FAA or RCAA requests the information directly from the manufacturer because immediate contacts cannot be made with the exporting authority, the importing authority shall inform its counterpart authority of this action as soon as possible.
Accident/Incident and Suspected Unapproved Parts Investigation Information Requests. When either the FAA or CAA-NL needs information for the investigation of service incidents, accidents, or suspected unapproved parts involving a product, part, or appliance imported under these Implementation Procedures, the request for the information should be directed to the appropriate office of the exporting authority. In turn, upon receipt of the request for information, the exporting authority should immediately do everything necessary to make sure the requested information is provided in a timely manner, as far as this information is available to CAA-NL or FAA and authorized for release. If urgency requires that either the FAA or CAA-NL requests the information directly from the manufacturer because immediate contacts cannot be made with the exporting authority, the importing authority shall inform its counterpart authority of this action as soon as possible.
Accident/Incident and Suspected Unapproved Parts Investigation Information Requests. When either the FAA or DGAC needs information for the investigation of service incidents, accidents, or suspected unapproved parts involving a product, part, or appliance imported under these Implementation Procedures, the request for the information should be directed to the appropriate office of the exporting authority. In turn, upon receipt of the request for information, the exporting authority should immediately do everything necessary to make sure the requested information is provided in a timely manner, as far as this information is available to DGAC or FAA and authorized for release. If urgency requires that either the FAA or DGAC requests the information directly from the manufacturer because immediate contacts cannot be made with the exporting authority, the importing authority shall inform its counterpart authority of this action as soon as possible.
