You use the Accidents/Incidents page to view your accident and incident records on file in the FAA Accident and Incident Data System (AIDS). The AIDS application contains records of aircraft accidents and incidents occurring in the United States and those involving United States-registered aircraft if outside of the United States. The AIDS records are limited to accidents and incidents occurring on or after August 1, 2010. For incidents, the full record displays. For accidents, since the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) provides the final report on accidents, the PRD Airman Records portal provides a link to the NTSB website, http://www.ntsb.gov/_layouts/ntsb.aviation/index.aspx, with sufficient fields to perform a search on the accident.
The Accidents/Incidents page can be accessed at any time during your use of the PRD Airman Records portal by clicking Accidents/Incidents on the top-level menu. The Accidents/Incidents page displays.
