Looks like a Victa Airtourer has force landed on the Brooker Highway in Hobart near Clearys gates:

Sounds like the pilot got out ok. Nasty spot to have to come down!

Serious question.. no offense indented..

 

Would that have been a road accident or an aircraft accident if a fatality / serious injury had occurred?

As it stands with the pilot walking away, it is still an aircraft accident, not an incident.

Well, he is stopped in a no standing zone.
