Import Tips
• Provide engineering drawings showing weight distribution to affirm 'normal flying order' status without added equipment
• Ensure packaging doesn't imply disassembly, as sets of parts could trigger 8803 classification
• Comply with aviation safety standards; lack of certs can lead to holds or re-export
