Strange use by the military of the description "mishap" - which in my book is a small mistake / unlucky accident / misfortune. However ....
Pretty standard US terminology in their reports - MP = Mishap Pilot. I guess similar to my company's non-use of the word 'accident' as one of the definition's implies something that couldn't be controlled or predicted.
