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.

The pilot said that during a landing attempt, the airspeed got low and he flared a 'little high.' He applied full power to perform a go-around, but the airplane mushed to the ground. The impact sequence bent both wings and wrinkled the fuselage. The weather conditions at the time of the accident were as follows: temperature 77 degrees Fahrenheit; altimeter setting 30.28 inches of mercury; density altitude 10,799 feet (elevation 8,149 feet).
The pilot's inadvertent stall/mush during a go-around attempt. A contributing factor was the high density altitude weather condition.
On July 25, 2000, approximately 1015 mountain daylight time, a Fudold Avid Magnum, N200UB, was substantially damaged when it impacted terrain during a go-around attempt at Jackson County Airport, Walden, Colorado. The private pilot and his passenger were not injured. The airplane was being operated by the pilot under Title 14 CFR Part 91. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed for the local flight that originated approximately 1 hour 25 minutes before the accident. No flight plan had been filed.
