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 private certificated pilot reported that he was landing his tundra tire-equipped airplane at an off-airport site during a Title 14, CFR Part 91 local flight. He said during a telephone conversation with the NTSB investigator-in-charge that during the landing roll on the soft and wet surface, he applied heavy braking. The airplane subsequently nosed over and sustained substantial damage to the vertical stabilizer and one left wing strut. The pilot indicated that there were no preaccident mechanical problems with the airplane, and that he just applied excessive braking during the landing roll.

NTSB Probable Cause

The pilot's excessive use of brakes during the landing roll. A factor associated with the accident was soft terrain.
