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 stated, the approach for the full stop landing was uneventful. On final, about 10 feet above the ground, with engine power reduced and the airplane in a landing configuration, a gust of wind from the left blew the airplane to the right. The right main tire touched down hard followed by the left main tire. As the airplane bounced down the runway, he attempted a go-around. He added full engine power, and pitched the airplane's nose up. The left wing hit the ground and the airplane flipped over coming to a stop upside-down.
