Statistics for Ground Handling Incidents
Statistics for Ground Handling Incidents
Not sure if this is the right place to post this question, but I'm sure someone will tell me if it isn't!!
I am interested in whether there are any statistics readily available, and preferably free , that show the incidence of 'ramp rash' accidents and injuries/deaths with comparisons year on year for the last years ideally? Worldwide would good, just Middle East ideal, or UK as a guide also good.
There is plenty of statistics on aircraft accidents but I haven't been able to Google anything that shows statistics for ramp vehicle accidents, including when an aircraft is involved.
Fingers crossed that someone out there can help.

If procedures / procedural non compliance is of particular interest you should look for a copy of “Bending the rules - The Violation Manual” a paper by Patrick Hudson, James Reason, et al.
