Default Incidents

I've had three incidents since I've been flying. The first a governor failure after take off followed by a safe landing, a faulty gear light indicator (landed w/o incident), and the latest two tires blowing out on landing (my fault, but no damage other than the tires). I've noticed that some employers ask that you have no incidents or accidents. Do these exclude me from appyling? If the faa wasn't involved will any of these incidents go on my permanent record?

If the FAA doesn't know about it, it didn't happen. What permanent record are you talking about? I'd not put any of it in my logbook.

Well these all occured working for a Part 135 operator. The chief pilot made me fill out a statement for each of these occurences. Does that mean the faa has a record of the incidents?

They ask if you have had any incidents and then ask if so to explain. If you have had a few incidents where you acted cool and calm and resolved the situation in a safe manner you shouldnt worry about them.

I'd go with Kerns..... On the two tires, assume you were a little heavy with your feet before landing?

"Well these all occured working for a Part 135 operator."

Oh, I just figured it was 91. In addition to what usmc-sgt said, you could go have a face to face talk to your POI.

It's a mistake, it happens, admit it, go on, you'll be fine. This isn't an incident or anything like that, so it's not really on your record, unless you really took it for a ride afterwards.
