IFALPA emphasizes that operators should only provide information on approved techniques and procedures endorsed by the competent authority responsible for aircraft safety. IFALPA suggests a process for approving techniques that have a significant impact on aircraft operation, involving manufacturer and authority acceptance. This ensures adherence to standardized practices and enhances overall safety.
