## What is PlaneFault?

PlaneFault delivers fact-based, carefully sourced information about aviation incidents worldwide — without sensationalism, but with journalistic rigor and legally precise classification.

Every incident is classified according to the internationally recognized ICAO Annex 13 criteria: Accident, Serious Incident, or Incident. See at a glance how serious an event actually is — instead of relying on sensational headlines.

FEATURES

• Live feed: Aviation incidents worldwide, continuously updated
• ICAO classification: Transparent categorization per Annex 13
• Aircraft back in the air: live tracking shows it
• Bilingual content: Every article in German and English
• Aircraft photos: Images of the affected aircraft, where available
• Airport data: Details on departure and destination airports, runways
• Investigation reports: Direct links to NTSB, BFU, and other authorities
• Watchlist: Track specific airlines, regions, or aircraft types
• Push notifications: Get notified when something happens
• Map view: All incidents at a glance, worldwide

FACT-BASED AND CAREFUL

Our content is compiled from multiple sources and clearly attributed. Where facts are not yet conclusively established, we mark this explicitly. Found an error? Use the built-in report feature to let us know directly.

For anyone interested in aviation — professionally, out of safety interest, or simply as an enthusiast.
