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.

NTSB Number
DFW08CA098
While on landing roll on a private airstrip, the single-engine, tailwheel-equipped airplane encountered a gust of wind. The pilot was not able to correct the airplane's ground track before the airplane encountered soft soil near the edge of the airstrip. The pilot attempted to quickly stop the airplane and applied full brakes. Brake marks and propeller strikes lead to a point where the airplane nosed over. The private airstrip is oriented approximately 020 degrees, and winds in the vicinity were reported as variable from 340 degrees to 050 degrees at 11 knots.
NTSB Probable Cause
The pilot's failure to maintain airplane control on the landing roll. A contributing factor was the variable wind.
Full Narrative
While on landing roll-out on a private strip, the single-engine, tail wheel equipped airplane encountered a gust of wind. The pilot was not able to correct the airplane's ground track before the airplane encountered soft soil near the edge of the strip. The pilot attempted to quickly stop the airplane and applied full brakes. Brake marks and propeller strikes lead to a point where the airplane nosed over and came to rest in the inverted position. The private strip is oriented approximately 020 degrees and winds in the vicinity were reported as variable from 340 degrees to 050 degrees at 11 knots.
