CORPOUMre AVIATION S&mTY UM:\im,mh\,umiim»i,^:\mii\»)»i^ Individual corporate and privately owned jet-powered and turboprop aircraft acci dent details have been supplied by Airclaims from its World Aircraft Accident Summary (WAAS)*, which it compiles and publishes on behalf of the UK Civil Aviation Authority. The WAAS also provides analysis by category under aircraft type, event, location and opera tor, and Airclaims also has an exclusive information exchange agreement with the CIS Interstate Aviation Committee's Commission for Flight Safety. Additional information is from Flight International's own sources. Although we make every effort to ensure the listing of complete and accu rate information, users should not employ the information for legal purpos es or for precise statistical analysis. The availability of data is prejudiced by the fact that some companies in remote regions do not fully insure aircraft and therefore do not report incidents result ing in damage. The criterion for listing an accident or incident is that it involves fatality or seri ous injury to those on board or significant damage to the aircraft. *Airclaims, Cardinal Point, Newall Road, Heathrow Airport, London TW6 2AS, UK; tel: +44 (181) 897 1066, fax: +44 (181)897 0300.
