FOREWORD

This report contains the Briefs of Accidents involving Corporate/ Executive aircraft occurring in 1967. There were 119 accidents involving this kind of flying out of a total of 6,115 General Aviation accidents in 1967.

Collisions between aircraft are treated a~ one accident. A complete analysis and coding is done on each aircraft involved in collisions. This produces two aircraft accident records, one for each aircraft involved in the collision. Consequentlu, when compiling information on accidents involving collisions between aircraft, the number of accidents records will exceed the number of accidents. The injury· and cause/related tables will exceed the number of accidents. The injury and cause/related tables whow the number of accidents. All analytic tables show both records and accidents.

The Briefs of Accidents contain the essential items of information which fulfill the requirements of the majority of persons using these reports. However, for those having a need for more detailed information, the ofiginal factual reports on each accident are on file in the Washington office of the National Transportation Safety Board. Upon request these reports will be reproduced commercially at an average cost of 15¢ per page for printed matter and 75¢ per page for photographs, plus postage. (Minimum Charge $1.00).

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 directed to you by the same company.

Orders for this material will also involve a $2.00 user service charge by the Board for special service. This charge is in addition to the cost of commercial reproduction of material and will be included in the bill from the commercial reproduction _firm.

Request for reproduction should be forwarded to the:

EXPLANATORY NOTES

~e o.LAccider:_~:

The type of accident relates to the circumstances involved in the accident·. Briefly, it indicates what happened.

Phase_of ~ion:

The phase of operation relates to the partkular segment of the flight or operation during which the circumstances of the accident occur. In other words, where in the flight the circumstances took place.

First and Second TlJ2e of Accl:-dent:

Two separate types may be coded in any one accident. The selec~

tion of first and second type is made in relation to the sequence of occurrence.

In those occurrences wherein more than two types or circumstances are involved, the selection of types is made considering the circumstances which may be of the greatest value from the standpoint of safety study. In such cases the two types selected are coded as first and second according to sequence of occurrence.

A secondary type is not normally used when the occurrence is the inevitable result of' a prior occurrence resulting in the loss of control. Generally this pertains to collisions with ground or objects.

~-and ~~.~~~~-Phase of .. Operation:

The phase of operation is directly related to the type of accident. When more than one tYI)e is coded for an accident, each type will have a corresponding pha,se. In other words, the first phase of operation will be that phase of flight in which the first type or circumsta.nce occurred. In the event that the first and second type both occur -in one operational phase, the same phas~ is coded twice.

Cause and Helated Factors: ~-.-........-~-.._.,.,.._,--~----·s------

In deternLilling the probable caus·e of an accident, all fa.cts, conditions and drcumstances are considered. For statistical purposes, wh8rc t'•(rn or more causes exist in an accident, each is recorded and no att~~>t is made to establish a primary cause. Therefore, in the Cause and Related Facto:c Table :r the figures shown in the columns deaJ hie; wj.th Cause will exceed the total nur11ber of accidents. The term li'act.or :i.sused, in general, to reflect those elements of an accidenC~rhich further explain or supplement the probable cause ( s). Thj.s provision was incorporated in the coding system to increase its flexibility and to provide a means for collecting essenU.al it0i"11s of information which could not be readily categorized elsewhere in the system.
