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 HAD EXPERIENCED AN ENG FAILURE DUE TO FUEL EXHAUSTION & HAD SAFELY EXECUTED A FORCED LANDING ON A 1,100 FT ROAD IN FRONT OF CONDOMINIUMS.

AFTER LIFT-OFF, AT AN ALTITUDE OF ABOUT 6 FT, THE ACFT & WHEELS CONTACTED SHRUBS & BUSHES CAUSING THE ACFT TO DECELERATE & COLLIDE WITH A FENCE. THE PLT STATED THAT BECAUSE THE 'PRESS' WAS PRESENT, HE DID NOT LIMIT THE REFUELING OF THE ACFT & ADDED 120 LBS OF FUEL. HE ALSO ATTEMPTED THE TAKEOFF WITH THE PASSENGER ON BOARD.
