TSB reportable incidents
Mandatory TSB incident reporting gate (TC AIM GEN 3.3.2), either one:
- Aircraft MCTOW greater than 2,250 kg
- Operated under a Part VII (Commercial Air Services) air operator certificate
Neither met: occurrences below not mandatory TSB incidents.
Reportable occurrences once gate met (TC AIM GEN 3.3.2):
| Item | Occurrence |
|---|---|
| (a) | Engine fails or is shut down as a precaution |
| (b) | Power train transmission gearbox malfunction |
| (c) | Smoke detected or fire on board |
| (d) | Control difficulty from system malfunction, weather, wake turbulence, uncontrolled vibration, or flight-envelope excursion |
| (e) | Fails to stay within landing/take-off area, lands with gear all or partly retracted, or drags wing tip, engine pod, or other part |
| (f) | Crew member with duties directly related to safe operation incapacitated, unable to perform them, threatening safety of persons, property, or environment |
| (g) | Depressurization requiring emergency descent |
| (h) | Fuel shortage forcing diversion, or requiring approach and landing priority at destination |
| (i) | Refuelling with wrong type of fuel, or contaminated fuel |
| (j) | Collision, risk of collision, or loss of separation |
| (k) | Crew member declares emergency, or indicates one needing priority ATS handling or emergency-response standby |
| (l) | Slung load released unintentionally, or as precautionary or emergency measure |
| (m) | Dangerous goods released in or from aircraft |
Trap: the 2,250 kg / Part VII gate covers only incidents; accidents (GEN 3.3.1: death or serious injury, disqualifying structural damage, missing or inaccessible aircraft) are reportable for any aircraft; 2,250 kg is not the CARs "large aeroplane" weight (5,700 kg, CARs 101.01).
