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 student pilot was making an approach to land on runway 05 and elected to go-around. As the student pilot initiated the go-around, he made a left 90 degrees turn, the airplane stalled and collided with trees west of the airport. The witness stated that the winds were coming from the right of runway 05, at approximately 13 knots, gusting to 22 to 26 knots. The airplane rested about 250 yards west of the runway in a nose low attitude. The examination of the accident site revealed that there was a narrow vertical swath through the trees to where the airplane rested. Post-accident examination of the airplane revealed that both wings were separated from the airplane and the empennage was damaged. The carburetor heat lever was found in the off position, the throttle control lever was half open, the mixture control lever was retracted 1/2 inch, and the flaps were extended. The pilot did not report a mechanical problem with the airplane.

NTSB Probable Cause

The pilots failure to maintain flying speed during the go-around, which resulted in a stall and the subsequent collision with trees.
