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.
Miami, FL
The pilot stated that while on final approach, he was instructed to go-around by the air traffic controller. He applied full engine power and noticed that he had a nose up attitude. He immediately lowered the nose. The airplane yawed to the left and he attempted to correct the yaw by applying right aileron and right rudder. The airplane dropped abruptly and hit the runway, causing the nose landing gear to collapse. The airplane then skidded off the runway and nosed over.
The pilot's failure to maintain airspeed during a go-around resulting in the airplane stalling, descending uncontrolled, impacting the runway, and sliding off the runway and nosing over.
On June 8, 2001, about 1942 eastern daylight time, a Cessna 172M, N64429, registered to Pan Air Flying Club, Inc., crashed during a go-around at Kendall-Tamiami Executive Airport, Miami, Florida, while on a 14 CFR Part 91 personal flight. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed at the time and no flight plan was filed. The airplane received substantial damage and the private-rated pilot and two passengers were not injured. The flight originated from Miami, Florida, the same day, about 1930. The pilot stated that while on final approach to runway 9 right, the air traffic controller instructed him to perform a go-around. He applied full engine power and noticed that he had a nose-high attitude. He immediately lowered the nose. The airplane yawed toward the left and he attempted to correct by applying right aileron and right rudder. The airplane dropped abruptly and hit the runway, crushing the nose landing gear. The airplane continued to the left, and when it contacted the grass to the side of the runway, the nose landing gear dug into the dirt and the airplane nosed over. The FAA Tamiami Airport Air Traffic Control Tower Ground Controller stated he heard the Local Controller issue a go-around instruction to the pilot of N64429. When he looked to the approach end of runway 9 right, he saw the Cessna 172 trying to climb. The left wing touched the ground and the airplane nosed over.
