of a Bilateral Aviation Safety Agree-
ment (BASA).
(a) The evaluation and qualification
of an FSTD by a contracting State to
the Convention on International Civil
Aviation for the sponsor of an FSTD
located in that contracting State may

statement of qualification (see applica-
ble QPS, attachment 4, figure 4) by the
NSPM to the sponsor of that FSTD in
accordance with—
(1) A BASA between the United
States and the Contracting State that
