After discussing the Aviation Safety Reporting System (ASRS) with people involved in many different aspects of aviation, NASA has come to believe there are several misconceptions concerning the filing of reports. For example, a number of people thought that direct involvement was necessary to report an incident, and many expressed a belief that a person can submit only one ASRS report within a five-year period.
“You do not need to be directly involved in an incident to submit a report,” said NASA. “Everyone is encouraged to submit reports to the ASRS when they are involved in, or observe, an incident or situation in which aviation safety was a concern or in which safety was actually compromised.”
