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 reported that the airplane was about 20 feet above ground level during the initial takeoff climb when a "heavy wind started." The airplane was pushed right about 30 to 40 feet, and then the right wing "went straight up." The pilot said that he took corrective action and leveled the wings. At that point, the airplane "quit flying," struck the ground, and nosed over coming to rest on its back. According to the pilot, the winds were calm when he started the takeoff, and "black clouds came in over the west mountain ridge" after he started the takeoff roll.

NTSB Probable Cause

The pilot's inadequate compensation for the gusty wind conditions and his failure to maintain aircraft control, which resulted in a loss of control and collision with terrain during the takeoff initial climb. A contributing factor was the gusty wind condition.
