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 pilot/owner reported that he landed with a quartering tailwind, that was within the airplane's limits, at his private airstrip. He landed with a slightly higher airspeed due to the winds, and discovered during the rollout that he had "nil" braking. The airplane subsequently overran the end of the 2,200-foot runway and struck a pine tree. The pilot/owner also reported that he had not properly seated the airplane's recently installed brakes, "resulting in very limited braking action."
NTSB Probable Cause
The pilot's misjudged distance/speed, and his failure to properly seat the airplane's recently installed brakes. A factor was the quartering tailwind.
