	Incidents in Aviation in the Aviation History Encyclopedia
		The Tenerife disaster which killed almost 600 people is often regarded as the worst-ever incident in Aviation history.
		The "worst ever aviation incident", in other words, is a matter of definition.
		Two incidents of note have happened in Puerto Rico: On December 31, 1972, baseball player Roberto Clemente, his helpers and crew died when the DC-3 they rented for a relief flight to Nicaragua crashed off the Atlantic coast, shortly after take-off from Luis Munoz Marin International Airport, then known as Isla Verde International Airport.

	FOREWORD (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Hijacking and commandeering incidents are viewed within the context of the U.S. Federal criminal statute (49 USC 1472 (i)), which defines air piracy as any seizure or exercise of control, by force or violence or threat of force or violence, or by any other form of intimidation, and with wrongful intent, of any aircraft.
		The incident began shortly after takeoff of flight MU 5915 when the man announced that he was carrying a bomb concealed in his bag and demanded to be flown to Taiwan.
		In this incident, a passenger had placed the device for an apparent suicide attempt; however, he was not the individual killed in the blast, which tore a hole in the plane’s fuselage.

		Incidents involving general aviation or charter aircraft are recorded separately and are not included in this category.
		The 42 incidents exceed by 18 the number of incidents recorded in 1999 and nearly doubles the lowest incident total (22), recorded in 1998, for the five-year period 1996-2000.
		The sharp increase in incidents in 2000 was the result of more hijackings (20 verses 11 in 1999) and airport attacks (13 verses 0).

		If the September 11, 2001 Terrorist Attacks in New York and Washington are regarded as aviation disasters, rather than as acts of terrorism or warfare, then they account for about 2800 lives, significantly more than the Tenerife disaster.

		An aviation incident is defined as an occurrence other than an accident, associated with the operation of an aircraft, which affects or could affect the safety of operations.
		Other countries adopt a similar approach, although there are minor variations, such as to the extent of aviation-related operations on the ground covered, as well as with respect to the thresholds beyond which an injury is considered serious or the damage — substantial.

		Incidents of aviation rage have increased by 400 per cent worldwide in the past five years, and countries with alcohol restrictions are considered more vulnerable.
		According to Dr Hussain Pervaiz, a Dubai-based aviation safety and medical expert who trained with Nasa, an increase in deceptive advertising techniques, general poor service and unprofessional cabin crew are also contributing to air rage.
		He said airlines are not admitting publicly to the rising incidents of aviation rage because of market repercussions, and claims only the results rather than the causes are being treated.

	Undercurrent: Dive Gear and Dive Deaths; Equipment Problems? or Diver Error?; February, 2000
		DAN could contribute more to diver safety if it would take the tack of the Australians, who recently analyzed 1000 "incidents," finding that 105 (more than 10 percent) were "pure" equipment failure, a percentage similar to incidents in aviation, medicine, and industry, where studies show that 8-10% of the incidents arise from equipment failure.
		In two incidents, an alternate air source (a power inflator and demand valve combination) developed a leak during the dive (a pre-dive check would not have detected this fault), requiring disconnection to preserve the diver's air supply.
		In ten incidents, the inflator spontaneously inflated the BC: in seven of these cases, the diver failed to slow the rapid ascent and died.

	Projet de loi relatif aux enquêtes techniques sur les accidents et les incidents dans l'aviation civile
		Il a été considéré qu'ainsi défini, le champ d'application du Livre VII consacrait tous les incidents et donc a fortiori les accidents, qui par définition compromettent également la sécurité de l'exploitation de l'aéronef.
		Or les incidents permettent de tirer des enseignements utiles pour l'amélioration de la sécurité des aéronefs et de prévenir ainsi des accidents.
		Dans ces conditions, il apparaît nécessaire d'inciter les personnes impliquées dans un incident, qu'elles soient chargées de la conduite, de l'information, du contrôle ou de l'entretien de l'aéronef, à signaler les incidents.

		A recent investigation of alarm-related incidents in Naval aircraft found high rates of alarm-related problems, particularly false and missed alarms.
		Our findings indicated that alarm-related incidents are still quite common in civil aircraft.
		Furthermore, most alarm-related incidents occur during the approach phase of a flight, and are likely to involve the Ground Proximity Warning System (GPWS) or the Traffic Collision Avoidance System (TCAS).

		Elle a pour objet d’émettre, sur la base de l’analyse des circonstances et des causes des accidents ou des incidents aériens, des recommandations de sécurité à l’intention des compagnies aériennes et des constructeurs d’aéronefs.
		Pourtant, lorsque l’importance ou les circonstances particulières d’un accident ou d’un incident aérien conduisent à diligenter une enquête judiciaire parallèlement à l’enquête technique, ces deux enquêtes, qui se déroulent selon des objectifs différents, utilisent les mêmes pièces à conviction, qu’il s’agisse de débris à expertiser ou des enregistrements de bord.
		Lorsque les accidents ou les incidents aériens ne donnent lieu à l’ouverture, ni d’une enquête, ni d’une information judiciaire, il convient principalement d’éviter que les prélèvements aux fins d’enquête technique, par les enquêteurs en charge de cette procédure, ne donnent lieu à une contestation ultérieure, comme cela a déjà été le cas.
