Ok gotcha.

One, I didn't think this would qualify as an incident considering the lack of damage and the fact it happened during taxi. They didn't have to report it therefore I wouldn't see any reason somebody should have to put this on their application as an incident.

Two, I guess that would make sense the airlines would ask employers about incidents, accidents, whether or not you were terminated/asked to resign, etc. But do they ask every one of your previous employers if you were a good employee and had a good work ethic/performance? I think it would be a little unfair if you just had a boss that hated you and gave you a bad reference.
