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.

APPROXIMATELY 18 MILES WEST OF THE FORT LAUDERDALE AIRPORT, WHILE CRUISING AT 7500 FEET, THE ENGINE LOST POWER. AFTER ADVISING THE TOWER OF THE PROBLEM, ATC SUGGESTED ATTEMPTING A LANDING AT A CLOSER AIRPORT. AT THIS POINT THE PILOT STATED THAT POWER HAD BEEN REGAINED AND HE WOULD PREFER TO LAND AT HIS ORIGINAL DESTINATION. THE AIRCRAFT LANDED IN A FIELD ABOUT 1 MILE WEST OF FORT LAUDERDALE AIRPORT RECEIVING SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE. INVESTIGATION REVEALED THAT THE PILOT HAD MADE A PRECAUTIONARY LANDING THE DAY BEFORE DUE TO INTERMITTENT ENGINE PROBLEMS AND THAT NO ACTION WAS TAKEN TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM BEFORE DEPARTURE THE FOLLOWING DAY.
