Front 20

Which incident reporting system deal mainly with specific and concrete matters, and people are required to report certain types of incidents, which necessitates detailed regulations outlining who shall report and what shall be reported.

Back 20

Mandatory Incident Reporting Systems

Front 21

This incident reporting system tends to collect more information on technical failures than on the human-factor aspects.

Back 21

Mandatory Incident Reporting Systems

Front 22

In this incident reporting system, pilots, controllers, and others involved in aviation are required to report hazards, discrepancies, or deficiencies in which they were involved or which they observed.

Back 22

Voluntary Incident Reporting Systems
