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.

THE PLT OF A NORTH AMERICAN T-6G, N1364J, HAD JUST LANDED & WAS TAXIING DOWN A PARALLEL TAXIWAY TO THE APCH END OF THE RWY TO TAKEOFF AGAIN. AT ABOUT THE SAME TIME, A CESSNA 150K, N6402G, HAD BEEN STOPPED AT THE INTERSECTION OF THE PARALLEL TAXIWAY & ANOTHER ADJOINING TAXIWAY. THE CESSNA 150 HAD BEEN STOPPED SO THAT THE INSTRUCTOR (CFI) COULD GET OUT OF THE ACFT & THE STUDENT COULD PROCEED WITH HIS 3RD SUPERVISED SOLO. AS THE T-6 APPROACHED THE INTERSECTION WHERE THE CESSNA WAS PARKED, THE T-6 PLT MADE A SHALLOW S-TURN TO THE LEFT, THEN S-TURNED BACK TO THE RIGHT. AT THAT TIME, THE LEFT WING OF THE T-6 IMPACTED THE EMPENNAGE OF THE CESSNA FROM THE LEFT REAR. THE CFI HAD JUST DEPLANED & WAS STANDING ON THE GROUND NEXT TO THE CESSNA. HE WAS KNOCKED OFF BALANCE & GRABBED THE STRUT TO KEEP FROM FALLING TOWARD THE PROPELLER. HE THEN FELL UNDER THE CESSNA & INJURED HIS KNEE. NONE OF THE PLTS WERE AWARE THAT THE COLLISION WAS ABOUT TO OCCUR.
