No wonder cubs are so expensive,they are wrecking them lots quicker than they can be rebuilt.
 
No damage reported on that last one. So why is it in the Accident reports anyway?
 
Good question........does it have to be reported because he was operating under a waiver?

"Event Type: Incident"

OK-- now you'll have to clear my fuzzy brain on why its an incident. Is it just cause it happened in front of lots of people or just cause someone turned it in to the FAA. I thought even an incident had to have some minor type accident damage. Or are all forced landings supposed to be incidents?

In the first one the guy flips the aircraft over and its an incident???

(and what is "flip flop" for?) You looking to buy a spam can??

Title 49--Transportation
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CHAPTER VIII--NATIONAL TRANSPORTATION SAFETY BOARD

PART 830--NOTIFICATION AND REPORTING OF AIRCRAFT ACCIDENTS OR INCIDENTS AND OVERDUE AIRCRAFT, AND PRESERVATION OF AIRCRAFT WRECKAGE, MAIL, CARGO, AND RECORDS
[Code of Federal Regulations]
[Title 49, Volume 6]
[Revised as of October 1, 2003]
From the U.S. Government Printing Office via GPO Access
[CITE: 49CFR830.2]

[Page 203-204]

TITLE 49--TRANSPORTATION

SAFETY BOARD

Subpart A--General

Sec. 830.2 Definitions.

As used in this part the following words or phrases are defined as
follows:
Aircraft accident means an occurrence associated with the operation
of an aircraft which takes place between the time any person boards the
aircraft with the intention of flight and all such persons have
disembarked, and in which any person suffers death or serious injury, or
in which the aircraft receives substantial damage.
Civil aircraft means any aircraft other than a public aircraft.
Fatal injury means any injury which results in death within 30 days
of the accident.
Incident means an occurrence other than an accident, associated with
the operation of an aircraft, which affects or could affect the safety
of operations.
Operator means any person who causes or authorizes the operation of
an aircraft, such as the owner, lessee, or bailee of an aircraft.
Public aircraft means an aircraft used only for the United States
Government, or an aircraft owned and operated (except for commercial
purposes) or exclusively leased for at least 90 continuous days by a
government other

[[Page 204]]

than the United States Government, including a State, the District of
Columbia, a territory or possession of the United States, or a political
subdivision of that government. ``Public aircraft'' does not include a
government-owned aircraft transporting property for commercial purposes
and does not include a government-owned aircraft transporting passengers
other than: transporting (for other than commercial purposes)
crewmembers or other persons aboard the aircraft whose presence is
required to perform, or is associated with the performance of, a
governmental function such as firefighting, search and rescue, law
enforcement, aeronautical research, or biological or geological resource
management; or transporting (for other than commercial purposes) persons
aboard the aircraft if the aircraft is operated by the Armed Forces or
an intelligence agency of the United States. Notwithstanding any
limitation relating to use of the aircraft for commercial purposes, an
aircraft shall be considered to be a public aircraft without regard to
whether it is operated by a unit of government on behalf of another unit
of government pursuant to a cost reimbursement agreement, if the unit of
government on whose behalf the operation is conducted certifies to the
Administrator of the Federal Aviation Administration that the operation
was necessary to respond to a significant and imminent threat to life or
property (including natural resources) and that no service by a private
operator was reasonably available to meet the threat.
Serious injury means any injury which: (1) Requires hospitalization
for more than 48 hours, commencing within 7 days from the date of the
injury was received; (2) results in a fracture of any bone (except
simple fractures of fingers, toes, or nose); (3) causes severe
hemorrhages, nerve, muscle, or tendon damage; (4) involves any internal
organ; or (5) involves second- or third-degree burns, or any burns
affecting more than 5 percent of the body surface.
Substantial damage means damage or failure which adversely affects
the structural strength, performance, or flight characteristics of the
aircraft, and which would normally require major repair or replacement
of the affected component. Engine failure or damage limited to an engine
if only one engine fails or is damaged, bent fairings or cowling, dented
skin, small punctured holes in the skin or fabric, ground damage to
rotor or propeller blades, and damage to landing gear, wheels, tires,
flaps, engine accessories, brakes, or wingtips are not considered
``substantial damage'' for the purpose of this part.

[53 FR 36982, Sept. 23, 1988, as amended at 60 FR 40112, Aug. 7, 1995]



So, there's actually three categories, accident, incident and occurrence...

For example:

I'd use your Mooney, but who knows if they're in business today or not so that you could buy parts...

A certain old time ag pilot from Yankton is in the pattern in his Bonanza...

He diverts his attention from operating the aircraft to pick up the tin can and string to contact the tower (there still a little behind the times in SD), he continues the approach, forgeting to lower the landing gear and drops the tin can just in time to hear the prop tips hitting the asphalt (it was the asphalt, not his, sorry, couldn't resist), he goes around, lowers the gear and makes a normal landing, that's an occurrence...

The next time he flys, he repeats the scenario except he forgets the gear... No serious injury, no substantial damage, but we're talking Beech parts here, so it costs $23,976.02 in repairs... Money doesn't matter (try telling that to my wife!), so it's an incident...

OK, the guy's an old time ag pilot, so we know he's got lots of money, kinda like you, so he forked out the $23,996.02, the extra $20. was for flowers for his wife, and repairs the BananaWagon... This time he repeats the scenario AGAIN (where's the FAA when you need them?) and hears that familiar grinding noise under his butt... Unfortunately for him, the Parathion has got to him over the years and all the Pawnee crashes where he crammed his foot against the structure to steady himself causes him to attempt the same thing in the Bonanza... The V-tail slows considerably faster than the broken Pawnees did and he breaks his leg, it has now become an accident!... In the same scenario, even without the serious injury, if he grinds away the keel, or bends the firewall, both considered structural, it's an accident...

Clear as mud?...

I sold Cuby, so now I can buy FlipFlops for the baby so it doesn't have to go barefoot...
 
I've been told incidents do not have to be reported. Yes/No??

I'll tell you my Parathion story some day Cuby...... :lol:
 
Thats interesting that curling the tips on the prop is only an occurance. I've been told that before. But I would think that would be substantual enough to affect the safety of the plane as NTSB describes. I know a low time pilot that bought a C-120 and on his first landing , lit on an ice covered runway and proceded to slide off the side and put the nose in a snowbank, only damaging the prop. His "Friendly FBO" rushed right out helped him pull it to the hangar then promptly call the FAA and turned him in. He would up getting grounded until he got more dual and a checkride. Why was that if it was only an occurance? Is that up to the discretion of the local FAA (once its been reported) and they could judge that regardless of whether he had an accident or not he needed more training?

TITLE 49--TRANSPORTATION

SAFETY BOARD

Subpart B--Initial Notification of Aircraft Accidents, Incidents, and
Overdue Aircraft

Sec. 830.5 Immediate notification.


The operator of any civil aircraft, or any public aircraft not
operated by the Armed Forces or an intelligence agency of the United
States, or any foreign aircraft shall immediately, and by the most
expeditious means available, notify the nearest National Transportation
Safety Board (Board) field office \1\ when:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

\1\ The Board field offices are listed under U.S. Government in the
telephone directories of the following cities: Anchorage, AK, Atlanta,
GA, West Chicago, IL, Denver, CO, Arlington, TX, Gardena (Los Angeles),
CA, Miami, FL, Parsippany, NJ (metropolitan New York, NY), Seattle, WA,
and Washington, DC.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

(a) An aircraft accident or any of the following listed incidents
occur:
(1) Flight control system malfunction or failure;
(2) Inability of any required flight crewmember to perform normal
flight duties as a result of injury or illness;
(3) Failure of structural components of a turbine engine excluding
compressor and turbine blades and vanes;
(4) In-flight fire; or
(5) Aircraft collide in flight.
(6) Damage to property, other than the aircraft, estimated to exceed
$25,000 for repair (including materials and labor) or fair market value
in the event of total loss, whichever is less.
(7) For large multiengine aircraft (more than 12,500 pounds maximum
certificated takeoff weight):

[[Page 205]]

(i) In-flight failure of electrical systems which requires the
sustained use of an emergency bus powered by a back-up source such as a
battery, auxiliary power unit, or air-driven generator to retain flight
control or essential instruments;
(ii) In-flight failure of hydraulic systems that results in
sustained reliance on the sole remaining hydraulic or mechanical system
for movement of flight control surfaces;
(iii) Sustained loss of the power or thrust produced by two or more
engines; and
(iv) An evacuation of an aircraft in which an emergency egress
system is utilized.
(b) An aircraft is overdue and is believed to have been involved in
an accident.
