The Tripoli web page says:
"Level 3 Certification flights may take place at any insured launch. One TAP member must be present and witness the certification flight, and must witness the rocket ascend in a stable manner and descend in stabilized manner controlled by the recovery system."
https://www.tripoli.org/Level3
However, the Universal Certification Form says:
"Following is for Certifying Authority Use Only. Certifying Authority shall send this form to Tripoli Headquartersfollowing the certification flight attempt. May only be signed by a Prefect, TAP or Board Member."
https://www.tripoli.org/Portals/1/Documents/Certification/Universal_Certification_Form.pdf
Does this mean that the prefect may witness and certify an L3 certification flight if no TAP member is present, if two TAP members have signed the Design and Documentation section?
