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.

A Stinson (N6319M) was taxiing to parking after landing and collided with a standing Cessna 210B (N9616X), which was waiting to takeoff. The Stinson pilot (N6319M) said he had landed on runway 27 and taxied back on a parallel taxiway to the approach end of the runway in order to cross to his parking area. The pilot stated that he did not see anyone on the far side and crossed the runway in a southerly direction. As the aircraft reached the other side of the runway, it collided left wing to left wing with the Cessna 210B (N9616X), which was stopped in a northerly direction waiting to pull onto the runway.

NTSB Probable Cause

THE PILOT OF THE OTHER AIRCRAFT FAILED TO MAINTAIN AN ADEQUATE VISUAL LOOKOUT.
