What is the different between accident and incident?

When classifying a plane "crash", the FAA refers to it as either an Accident or an Incident.An Accident is when there is major damage to an airplane and/or injury or death.An Incident only involves minor damage to the airplane or a few minor injuries.Recommend the FAA or the NTSB website.ANSWER 2any accident that is caused intentionally in any way by someone is not an "accident" - an incident is any thing that happens that is not an accident as definied in the above answer - thus an intentionally caused incident, even if it is fatal or has major damage, is not an accident but an incident - hopefully that's not too confusing!Another thoughtI was always under the impression that it was simply a matter of cost. If the repairs exceeded a specific dollar amount, or man hours required for repair, then it was categorized as an accident. However, it certainly makes sense that other factors, such as injury and/or death, would be considered.
