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.

While attempting to land in variable wind conditions, with gusts to about 15 knots, the pilot inadvertently allowed the aircraft to porpoise. During that sequence, the nose gear hit the runway hard a number of times, and ultimately sustained damage that made the aircraft hard to control. The pilot then lost control of the aircraft, which departed the side of the runway.

NTSB Probable Cause

The pilot's failure to maintain aircraft control which resulted in the aircraft porpoising during the landing. A factor was the wind gusts.
