Just before arriving on the apron, taxiing inadvertently on the grass, a wheel falls into a hole, which seriously damages the aircraft and obliges the crew to delay the departure. A. This is an incident and the pilot-in-command must report it to the airport authority within the next 48 hours. B. This is an accident and the crew must follow the procedure relevant to this case C. Since no physical injury has been noticed and the flight is over, the actions to be taken are related only to insurance, to the repair man, the operator and the persons in charge of the runway and taxiways D. This is an irregularity in the operation; the crew must inform the operator of the delay caused by necessary repair.
