harry the point you are making is pointless injuries do not mean that an incident is more serious than another two planes nearly colliding is more serious than severe turbulence that injures a few people because the potential outcome of the two events is much different the severe turbulence has the potential to injure a few people the near collision of two planes could mean the loss of hundreds of lives also just because one article on wiki includes minor events does not mean that all should go look at some of the major american airlines that have been around for the past years and if they were to include every minor incident it would be a list a mile long instead the list of accidents include only serious incidents which include potential terrorist actions irish aviation authorities have three labels for incidents accidents incident serious incident accident ryanair depressurization with emergency decent and with oxygen masks deployed in cabin people had earaches but nobody hospitalized labeled an incident by the irish aviation authorities ryanair depressurization with passenger oxygen masks deployed with no injuries labeled incident by irish aviation authorities ryanair depressurization with passenger oxygen masks deployed with no injuries labeled incident by irish aviation authorities ryanair engine bird strike and shutdown on takeoff and return to airport single engine labeled incident by irish aviation authorities ryanair labeled serious incidents by irish aviation authorities although no damage or no injuries aerlingus depressurization incidents only 's listed depressurization with emergency descent with passenger oxygen masks deployed with no injuries labeled incident by irish aviation authorities depressurization with emergency descent with passenger oxygen masks deployed passengers did seek medical attention and crew suffered from earaches and nose bleeds labeled incident by irish aviation authorities depressurization incident where the flight crew completely messed up continued to climb passenger masks dropped first officer taking oxygen captain refuses oxygen and then tells the passengers they don't really need the oxygen although they are still at feet labeled incident by irish aviation authorities
