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 airplane was damaged during landing when the nose landing gear collapsed. A witness reported seeing the airplane land hard and subsequently bounce several times prior to the collapse of the nose landing gear. No pre-impact anomalies were found.
NTSB Probable Cause
The pilot's improper recovery from the bounced landing resulting in the collapse of the nose landing gear. A factor was the pilot's misjudged landing flare.
Full Narrative
On March 21, 2004, about 1505 centrqal standard time, a Beech F33A, N3077H, piloted by a private pilot, was substantially damaged when the nose landing gear collapsed during landing on runway 02 (4,1010 feet by 75 feet, concrete), at the Wahoo Municipal Airport, Wahoo, Nebraska. The 14 CFR Part 91 personal flight was operating in visual meteorological conditions without a flight plan. The pilot was not injured. The local flight originated about 1430. A witness stated that he saw the airplane make a "very hard landing at the Wahoo airport." The witness further stated that the airplane bounced several times into the air and that the nose landing gear collapsed. A postaccident examination of the airplane revealed no pre-impact anomalies.
