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.

WHILE ON FINAL APCH TO LAND, THE PLT SAW 2 OTHER ACFT TAXI ONTO THE RWY & BEGAN TAKING OFF. AFTER THE 2ND ACFT HAD PULLED ONTO THE RWY, THE PLT DECIDED TO GO AROUND. HOWEVER AS THE ACFT ON THE RWY ACCELERATED, THERE APPEARED TO BE SUFFICIENT ROOM TO LAND, SO A GO-AROUND WAS NOT MADE. THE PLT STATED THAT WIND GUSTS WERE ENCOUNTERED, & BY THE TIME THE ACFT WAS LANDED, THERE WAS INSUFFICIENT RWY TO GO AROUND OR TO STOP BEFORE REACHING THE DEPARTURE END. SUBSEQUENTLY, THE ACFT WENT OFF THE END OF THE RWY, COLLIDED WITH ROCKS & THE NOSE GEAR COLLAPSED.
