APIM 09-012: Guidance for Export Control of Data, Hardware, and assoicated Intellectual Property (IP) (pdf, 15K)

The world of Intellectual Property (IP) and Export Controls has complicated the ability of the training device manufacturers and operators to obtain data for simulators that until recent years could be requested with a simple phone call.

The GEC Working Group will provide an open forum for Flight Simulator Training Device manufacturers, users, operators, and associated hardware and software vendors to discuss experiences and solutions in export controls and regulatory compliance.

The intent of this working group is to develop guidance that describes what a simulator manufacturer or operator might expect with respect to processes and documentation required for import and/or export of data, hardware, Intellectual Property,and other protected information.
