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 performed one approach to the runway, and then executed a go-around "due to traffic." He raised the landing gear during the go-around and continued in the traffic pattern for another landing. During the second landing attempt, the pilot "neglected to lower the landing gear," and the underside of the airplane contacted the ground. The pilot reported no mechanical deficiencies with the airplane, and an examination of the airplane by a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) inspector also revealed no deficiencies.
