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 stated that during a landing he was "hit" by a gust of wind during the "roundout" portion of the flare. The airplane touched down on the main landing gear, became airborne, and then touched down for a second time. He then observed that the compass had come off of the windshield. After parking the airplane he noticed that the nose wheel strut was angled towards the front of the airplane. A post accident examination of the airplane revealed substantial damage and no evidence of preimpact malfunctions.

NTSB Probable Cause

The student pilot's improper recovery from a bounced landing, resulting in a hard landing.
