ICAO Annex 13 (Amendment 9) Definition: "An occurrence associated with the operation of an aircraft, which takes place between the time any person boards the aircraft with the intention of flight, until such time as all such persons have disembarked, in which: a) A person is fatally or seriously injured as a result of a. Being in the aircraft b. Direct contact with any part of the aircraft, including parts which have become detached from the aircraft c. Direct exposure to jet blast Except when the injuries are from natural causes, self-inflicted or inflicted by other persons, or when the injuries are to stowaways hiding outside the areas normally available to the passengers and crew, or: b) The aircraft receives substantial damage or structural failure, which adversely affects the structural strength, performance or flight characteristics of the aircraft, and would normally require major repair or replacement of the affected component (before next flight). Except for engine failure or damage when the damage is limited to the engine, Source AP2509 its cowling or accessories; or for damage limited to propellers, wing tips, antenna, tires, brakes, fairing, small dents or puncture holes in the aircraft skin. or: c) The aircraft is missing or is completely inaccessible. Note: The above definition of an accident does not cover all possible events. Airbus Expanded Accident Definition: Airbus has adopted the ICAO definition, but has expanded it beyond aircraft boarding and disembarkation to encompass ground accidents resulting in death or serious injury from aircraft-related causes. In other words, the Airbus definition covers aircraft-related injury or death of passengers, flight and cabin crews, and ground, dispatch, airport, maintenance and cleaning personnel that occur outside of "block times", as well as during any phase of flight operations."

Source ISO 8402 Notes: 1. In a contractual environment or in a regulated environment, such as the nuclear safety field needs are specified, whereas in other environments, implied needs should be identified and defined. 2. In many instances, needs can change with time; this implies periodic review of requirements for quality. 3. Needs are usually into characteristics with specified criteria. Needs may include for example, aspects of performance, usability, dependability, (availability, reliability, maintainability), safety, environment, economics and aesthetics. 4. The term "quality" should not be used as a single term to express a degree of excellence in a comparative sense nor should it be used in a quantitative sense for technical evaluations. To express these meanings, a qualifying adjective should be used. For example, use can be made of the following terms: a) "relative quality" where entities are ranked on a relative basis in the "degree of excellence" or "comparative sense" (not to be confused with grade); b) "quality level" in a "quantitative sense" (as used in acceptance sampling) and "quality measure" where precise technical evaluations are carried out. 5. The achievement of satisfactory quality involves all stages of the quality loop as a whole. The contributions to quality of these various stages are sometimes identified separately for emphasis; for example quality due to definition of needs, quality due to product design, quality due to conformance, quality due to product support through its lifetime. In some references, quality is referred to as "fitness for use" or "fitness for purpose" or "customer satisfaction" or "conformance to the requirements". These represent only certain facets of quality as defined above. Approved Terms © Airbus SAS 2007. All rights reserved.

Notes: 1. These are both internal and external purposes for quality assurance. a) Internal quality assurance: within an organization, quality assurance provides confidence to the management. b) External quality assurance: in contractual or other situations, quality assurance provides confidence to the customers or others. 2. Some quality control and quality assurance actions are interrelated. 3. Unless requirements for quality fully reflect the needs of the user, quality assurance may not provide adequate confidence. ISO 8402 Quality Audit Quality Systematic and independent examination to determine whether quality activities and related results comply with planned arrangements and whether these arrangements are implemented effectively and are suitable to achieve objectives. Notes: 1. Often called "quality system audit", "process quality audit", "product quality audit" or "service quality audit". 2. Quality audits are carried out by staff not having direct responsibility in the areas being audited but, preferably, working in cooperation with the relevant personnel. 3. One purpose of a "quality audit" is to evaluate the need for improvement or corrective action. An audit should not be confused with quality "surveillance" or "inspection" activities performed for the purpose of process control or product acceptance. 4. Quality audits can be conducted for internal or external purposes. ISO 8402 Quality Control Quality Operational techniques and activities that are used to fulfill requirements for quality. Notes: 1. Quality control involves operational techniques and activities aimed both at monitoring a process and at eliminating causes of unsatisfactory performance at all stages of the quality loop in order to achieve economic effectiveness. 2. Some quality control and quality assurance actions are interrelated. ISO 8402 Approved Terms © Airbus SAS 2007. All rights reserved. Confidential and proprietary document.

Source WD based on ACMR 77/79 19 Mar 07 Lexinet - Airbus Reference Language Approved Terms Term Domain Definition Visual Flight Rules Aircraft Operation/Flight Operations VFRs are rules governing aircraft operation during visual weather conditions, that is with a specified minimum visibility and minimum distance away from cloud, and governing the flight plan of an aircraft operating under these conditions. Flight above a cloud layer is permitted if the way to the destination airport is clear of cloud. The pilot need not have an instrument rating but the aircraft must have a specified minimum of equipment, including a radio if the flight plan crosses controlled zones. White Tail Aircraft Identification Work Breakdown Structure Aircraft Project Management Redundant term used in the past to refer to an aircraft which had been completed but not allocated (no logo on the vertical stabilizer). The WBS is a deliverable-oriented, organized grouping of project elements which organizes and defines the total scope of a project. Each descending level element represents an increasingly detailed definition of project components; which may be either products or services.
