Military aviation accidents increase

Article Abstract:

The rate of military aviation accidents that went up slightly in fiscal 2003 resulting in the highest mishap rate in 11 years could be due to the increased operations tempo and worldwide deployments as part of the war on terrorism with no apparent link between aircraft age and accidents. Statistics show that 66 percent of Army aviation fatalities are due to Controlled Flight Into Terrain (CFIT) while system failures accounted for 8.3 percent of Army aviation fatalities and engine breakdowns for 6.1 percent.
