What if you have an altitude deviation on a STAR in Germany or a SID in Australia?
How does the FAA deal with a report from the German LBA?
What are the steps for a violation in foreign airspace to lead to FAA certificate enforcement action of a U.S. crewmember ?
The FAA does not enforce foreign regulation.
When operating in a foreign country, one is beholden to observe the regulations imposed by that country. Where violations occur, the foreign country has the option of taking action, but those options are limited and may appear as fines, warnings, or restrictions to further operate in that country.
An operator who incurs violations of noise or procedure may find itself banned or restricted from future operations in that country.
