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.
Rockwall, TX
The airline transport pilot reported that he was having difficulty maintaining control of the single-engine experimental airplane while attempting to land. He aborted the landing and executed a go-around. During the go-around, he reported that the engine lost power, and he subsequently made a forced landing in a wet field, one half-mile from the departure end of the runway. The airplane sustained structural damage to the main right main landing gear spars and both wings. The weather reported at the time of the accident was wind from 150 degrees at 5 knots, clear skies, unlimited visibility, and a temperature of 70 degrees Fahrenheit. The reason for the reported loss of engine power could not be determined.
A loss of engine power for an undetermined reason during a go-around, which resulted in a forced landing. A contributing factor was the lack of suitable terrain for the forced landing.
