However, due to the severity of the failure, the FAA and NTSB have launched an investigation and the NTSB plans to do an incident report.

I have heard somewhere on here, that airlines like AE, automatically disqualify your airlineapps app if you check that you have been involved in an aircraft accident, incident, or investigation. I want to be honest, but I don't want my app overlooked for something that I couldn't avoid. I feel that that specific question is directed towards pilots that were negligent in some way. If anything, my experience and training saved my butt and I would think a situation like this would actually HELP me get hired somewhere.

Can anyone shed some light on this or offer advice?
