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.

During initial descent, the engine lost power and the pilot initiated a forced landing to a field. While in cruise flight, the pilot "ran the left tank down to the beginning of the red, [then] switched to the right tank." Approximately 5 to 8 minutes later, the pilot noticed a loss in fuel pressure. Subsequently, the engine lost power, and the pilot's attempt to restart the engine was unsuccessful. Unable to reach an airport, the pilot initiated a forced landing to a field. During the forced landing, the airplane impacted uneven terrain, and the nose wheel collapsed. According to air traffic control, the pilot reported "he was out of fuel and unable to make the airport."
NTSB Probable Cause
the loss of engine power due to fuel exhaustion. Contributing factors were the pilot's inadequate preflight planning and lack of suitable terrain for the forced landing.
