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 pilot reported that during the landing roll on runway 28L with a 90 degree crosswind, the aircraft encountered a gust of wind. The aircraft veered to the side of the runway and the right wing contacted a runway edge light and the propeller contacted the ground. At the time of the accident, the airport was reporting winds from 180 degrees at nine knots, gusting to 16 knots.

NTSB Probable Cause

The pilot's failure to adequately compensate for wind conditions. Wind gusts were a factor.

Full Narrative

On June 1, 2001, approximately 1400 mountain daylight time, a Cessna TR182, N4602S, registered to Leeward Winery and operated by the private pilot as a 14 CFR Part 91 personal flight, collided with a runway light during the landing roll at Boise Air Terminal (Gowen Field), Boise, Idaho. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed at the time and a visual flight rules flight plan was filed. The aircraft was substantially damaged and the private pilot and his passenger were not injured. The flight departed from Concord, California, about 1115. The pilot reported to a Federal Aviation Administration Inspector from the Boise Flight Standards District Office and in a subsequent written statement, that during the landing roll with a 90 degree crosswind on runway 28L, the aircraft encountered a gust of wind. The aircraft veered to the side of the runway and the right wing contacted a runway edge light, and the propeller contacted the ground. Maintenance personnel performing repairs on the aircraft reported that the former tip rib on the right wing was damaged, and approximately 12 to 16 inches of leading edge wing skin, requiring an additional seam, was spliced in. At 1406, the Boise airport was reporting winds from 180 degrees at nine knots, gusting to 16 knots.
