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 AS HE WAS LIFTING THE NOSE WHEEL DURING TAKEOFF WHEN THE LEFT TIRE ENCOUNTERED 1 TO 2 INCHES OF WATER AND BROKEN PAVEMENT. HE STATED THAT THE PLANE VEERED LEFT AND HE APPLIED FULL RIGHT RUDDER TO RECOVER, THEN THE AIRCRAFT WENT OFF THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE RUNWAY. ACCORDING TO THE PILOT, THE PLANE ENCOUNTERED TALL, WET GRASS AND HE WAS UNABLE TO OBTAIN FLYING SPEED, SO HE ABORTED, BUT THE LEFT WING HIT A PILE OF CINDER BLOCKS. A WITNESS REPORTED THAT THE AIRCRAFT BECAME AIRBORNE WHEN THE PLANE HIT A DIP IN THE RUNWAY AND IT CONTINUED TO FLY UNTIL IT CRASHED.
