Evidence & assessment
Connect the claim to actual capability.
Read the family profile with the common ASTRA standard. Application-specific criteria, local authority and real evidence must be established for the particular case.
Define the object
Identify the legal holder, actual performer, subject or configuration, site, operating conditions and requested outcome.
Demonstrate implementation
Connect applicable requirements to current personnel, methods, resources and traceable original records. Confirm that reused evidence is relevant to this scope.
Resolve the conclusion
Every applicable mandatory condition must pass, exclusions must be independently justified and in-scope nonconformities verified closed before a positive decision.
Outcome boundaries
Use the conclusion actually reached.
Station and service capability does not establish airline flight-operating authority, aircraft release powers or the competence of every subcontractor and network location.
Membership, commercial relationships and a completed application do not determine the technical decision. Separate legal and competent-authority requirements continue to apply.
Controlled references
Programme documents.
Read the common core and this family’s profile together. These resources remain in the dedicated ASTRA collection, not the general Documents library.
