The information provided for each accident/incident record is displayed in a single printed line which contains the file number, aircraft registration number, accident date and location, aircraft make and model and the injury index. The enclosed computer briefs are the reports of the National Transportation Safety Board and thereby subject to the limitations of 49 USC 1441 (e) which states: "(e) No part of any report or reports of the Board relating to any accident or the investigation thereof, shall be admitted as evidence or used in any suit or action for damages growing out of any matter mentioned in such report or reports." In reading these reports, it should ·be borne in mind that they are reproducec::i directly from coded records on toagnetic tape by electronic data processing equip­ ment. Also, in reading the text, it must be borne in mind that computer language is utilized, thus requiring a number of abbreviations due to spacing limitations. Caution should be exercised in reading the Briefs of Accidents, especially those containing abbreviations in phrases and sentences. Collisions between aircraft are treated as one accident. A coded analysis is done on each aircraft involved in a collision. This produces two aircraft acci­ dent records per accident. Consequently, when compiling information on accidents ' involving collisions between aircraft, the number of accident records will exceed ' the number of accidents. The Brief a of Accidents contain the essential information which fulfill most requirements of persons using these reports. However, for those'. having a need for more detailed information, the original factual reports are on file in the Washington Office of the National Transportation Safety Board. Upon request, these reports will be reproduced commercially for a fee to cover reproduction and postage. The cost will be assessed per printed page, and photographs will be reproduced. Copies of material ordered will be mailed from the Washington business firm that holds the current contract for commercial reproduction of the Board's public files. Billing is also direct to you by the same company. Orders for this material als.o involve a user serv_i.ce charge by the Safety Board for special services ..--- This charge ls in addition to the ·cost·for commerc4.al reproduction of material ·and-·will be ·included-in -the bill ·from the commercial reproduction firm. Requests for reproduction should be forward~d to the: NATIONAL TRANSPORTATION SAFETY BOARD Public Inquiry Section Washington, D. C. 20594 PAGE I EXPLANATORY NOTES GENERAL AVIATION General Aviation refers to the operations of U. S. aircraft owned and operated by persons, corporations, etc., other than those engaged in air carrier operations authorized by a certificate of public convenience and necessity, issued by the Civil Aeronautics Board. U. S. AIR CARRIER As used in these reports, those operators who have been issued a certifi­ cate of public convenience and necessity by the Civil Aeronautics Board. Due to the small number of Air Carrier accidents, in relation. to the General Aviation accidents, not every issue of Briefs will contain this section. AIRCRAFT ACCIDENT The accidents included herein are the occurrences incident to flight in which, "as a result of the operation of an aircraft, any person (occupant or nonoccupant) receives fatal or serious injury or any aircraft receives substantial damage." An amendment to Section 430.2 of Part 430 of the National Transportation Safety Board's Regulations, effective January 1, 1968, changed the definition of "substantial damage" as follows: Prior to January 1, 1968, the definition of "substantial damage" was: (1) Except as provided in subparagraph (2) of this paragraph: (i) Substantial damage in aircraft of 12,500 pounds maximum certificated takeoff weight or less means damage or structural failure reasonably estimated to cost $300 or more to repair. (ii) Substantial damage in aircraft of more than 12,500 pounds maximum certificated takeoff weight means damage or structural failure which adversely affects the structural strength, per­ formance, or flight characteristics of the aircraft, and which would normally require major repairs or replacement of the affected component. (2) Engine failur~, damage limited to an engine, bent fairings or cowling, dented skin, small punctured holes in the skin or fabric, taxiing damage to propeller blades, damage to tires, engine accessories, brakes or wingtips are not considered "sub­ stantial damage" for the purpose of this part. PAGE II EXPLANATORY NOTES AIRCRAFT ACCIDENTS (con' t) Effective January 1, 1968, the definition of substantial damage was changed to read: (1) Except as provided in subparagraph (2) of this paragraph, substantial damage means damage or structural 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. (2) Engine failure, damage limited to an engine, bent fairings or cowling, dented skin, small punctured holes in the skin or fabric, ground damage to rotor or propeller blades, damage to landing gear, wheels, tires, flaps, engine accessories, brakes, or wingtips are not considered "substantial damage" for this part. INJURY INDEX Injury index refers to the highest degree of personal injury sustained as a result of the accident. COLLISION BETWEEN AIRCRAFT Collisions between aircraft are so classified only when both aircraft are occupied. This includes collisions wherein both aircraft are airborne (midair); one is airborne, the other on the ground; and both are on the ground. A collision with a parked, unoccupied air­ craft is classified under the broad category of collision with objects (parked, unoccupied aircraft).
