DEFINITIONS page defines the terms associated with aircraft accidents and incidents. Accident - 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. Serious Injury - Any injury which results in a fracture of any bone (except simple fractures of fingers, toes, or nose), or causes severe hemorrhages, or nerve, muscle, or tendon damage, or involves any internal organ, or involves second or third degree burns, or any burns affecting more than 5 percent of the body surface. Substantial Damage - 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 wing tips are not considered substantial damage for the purpose of this matrix. Incident - An occurrence other than an accident, associated with the operation of an aircraft, which affects or could affect the safety of the operation.
