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.

MIA06CA003

The pilot stated that he executed an ILS approach to runway 32 at about 120 knots, and touched down on the first quarter of the runway at about 100 knots. During landing, he noticed that the runway was wet, so he avoided using heavy wheel braking and, "primarily used aerodynamic braking." He further stated that past the midfield point, "the airplane still had a lot more momentum to bleed off", so he could either press firmly on the wheel brakes possibly causing him to hydroplane, or attempt a go-around. With one quarter of the runway left, he performed a go-around, climbed to approximately 50 feet, and noticed that the airplane was not climbing. He aborted the go-around and landed on grass past the departure end of the runway. While on the grass, the airplane veered sideways causing the left main gear to collapse. He also reported there was "no malfunctioning of the brakes", and "no malfunction of the airplane during the go around."

NTSB Probable Cause

The pilot's improper use of the normal brakes during the landing roll and his delay in performing a go-around resulting in an emergency descent/landing on grass past the departure end of the runway and subsequent collapse of the left main landing gear.
