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.
White Plains, NY
THE AIRPLANE ENTERED THE TRAFFIC PATTERN FOR A LANDING ON RUNWAY 29, BUT THE PILOT WAS THEN ASKED BY THE TOWER CONTROLLER TO LAND ON RUNWAY 16. THE PILOT STATED THAT THE 'APPROACH AND LANDING WERE NORMAL' BUT 'THE WIND GUSTED AND BALLOONED US A FEW FEET.' AFTER TOUCHING DOWN ON THE RUNWAY AGAIN, THE LEFT MAIN LANDING GEAR COLLAPSED AND THE AIRPLANE VEERED OFF TO THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE RUNWAY. A WITNESS REPORTED THE LANDING GEAR WAS DOWN PRIOR TO THE BOUNCE, BUT THEN OBSERVED THE LEFT GEAR 'IN TRAIL' AFTER THE BOUNCE. THE LANDING GEAR WAS FUNCTIONALLY TESTED AND NO MECHANICAL MALFUNCTIONS WERE FOUND.
THE COLLAPSE OF THE LEFT MAIN LANDING GEAR FOR AN UNDETERMINED REASON.
