Fast key and full-text search with live filters, watches, and precise metadata.
Use quotes for exact phrase matches (for example "fuel selector valve").
Track fatal and non-fatal accident patterns across Part 91, Part 135, and Part 121 operations.
Major cases, deep-report coverage, and investigation media across decades of NTSB history.
Move quickly by aircraft, airport, operator, and time with indexes built for research, not wandering.
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.

ACCORDING TO THE PLT, A SLIGHTLY HIGHER THAN NORMAL APCH SPEED WITH PARTIAL FLAP EXTENSION WAS USED FOR THE APCH DUE TO THE TURBULANCE AND WIND GUSTS TO 25 KTS. AFTER CROSSING THE THRESHOLD AT 20 TO 30 FT AGL THE FLARE RESULTED IN WHAT THE PILOT DESCRIBED AS A LONG FLOAT PRIOR TO LANDING. IMMEDIATELY AFTER TOUCHDOWN, THE PLT FURTHER STATED, A GUST OF WIND FROM THE RIGHT CAUSED THE ACFT TO DRIFT LEFT AND AN ABORTED LANDING WAS INITIATED AS IT BECAME EVIDENT THAT THE LEFT WHEEL WOULD LEAVE THE RWY. THE ACFT CONTINUED ACROSS THE ROUGH TERRAIN COLLAPSING ALL 3 LANDING GEAR BEFORE COMING TO REST. EXAMINATION OF THE RWY REVEALED SKID MARKS WHERE THE ACFT LEFT THE RWY. DENSITY ALT WAS CALCULATED TO BE 7,615 FT.
