Aviation safety reports, made easier to study
NTSB Reports is an independent research and search tool for public aviation accident and incident records. It brings NTSB aviation reports, structured fields, docket files, extracted figures, photos, videos, and update history into one searchable interface.
The goal is practical safety education: make it faster to find relevant investigations, compare similar events, review factual records, and understand the evidence behind probable-cause and preliminary reports.
The investigative work and source records belong to the National Transportation Safety Board and the published investigation record. This site is not affiliated with or endorsed by the NTSB.

Full Narrative
On April 17, 1994, at 2130 mountain daylight time, a Beech 95, N3051, sustained substantial damage from an engine fire which occurred during landing roll at Greeley-Weld County Airport. The pilot and passenger were not injured. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed and no flight plan was filed. The flight originated from Broomfield, Colorado, approximately 1 hour prior to the accident. Examination by an FAA inspector revealed that the propeller oil governor line had separated on the right engine. Further investigation provided information that the line and routing were not in compliance with Airworthiness Directive AD 90-04-06. A copy is attached.
