Just get good interview prep. They will help you frame your response. There are ways to address almost anything you have done. Interviewers know no one is perfect, they just want to see you handle stuff responsibly.

Good interview prep is worth every penny!

I remember talking to a guy who was involved in a military crash in which several people died.

It was one of those things that really wasn't his fault, but could have looked bad if handled wrong.

He told me his whole strategy for it, and how interview prep helped him out. He was able to explain how he dealt with it on professional and emotional levels. He really did a good job with those issues.

Hired.

Hired an instructor once who was still in the middle of an accident investigation.
He took a 44709 couple of months later. He left a year later for the Regionals.
And that was during the 'harder' times.
As long as there was no gross negligent or careless and reckless or just simply a brain dead act involved, you'll be fine.
Also know a guy that's with a Major and he put a plane in a tree banner towing.
