ASAP is not the same as a nasa report, but usually filed concurrently. My understanding is that each airline has a different program negotiated with the mec and approved by the controlling fsdo. My point is that an asap only keeps you out of trouble (including certificate action), if it wasnt flagrant, intentional and that the asap is the sole source (that means it wasnt brought to attention of management or the FAA chain) from another source. IE, the tower making a report of a runway incursion.
