This paper illustrates how a new clustering process dedicated to the analysis of anecdotal reports of aviation incidents has been designed and tested thanks to an FCA tool called Kontex. Special attention has been given to the necessary transcription of the data from the initial relational database to an FCA context. The graphical interface for Kontex, which has been specially implemented for this study, is also presented. The study presented in this paper validates the process adopted and highlights the use of FCA to help the expert to mine the database without previous knowledge of the searched concepts. The work brought original ideas to the aviation safety community by the development of an incident model and the notion of scenario. For the FCA community, one interesting aspect of this work lies on the use of a first-order context (given by a relational database) and its translation into a classical context.
