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.
Everglades City, FL
The pilot stated that he was conducting a short field approach to the 2,400-foot long runway. A witness who observed the accident stated that the airplane appeared "nose high and slow" over the runway threshold. The pilot stated that the airplane touched down "hard" and bounced twice. The pilot applied full power to conduct a go-around, the airplane "turned left," and then contacted a fence on the left side of the runway. The airplane came to rest in a grassy area and sustained substantial damage to the fuselage and both wings. The nearest weather reporting facility, located approximately 27 nautical miles northwest of the accident site, reported winds from 140 degrees at 5 knots about the time of the accident.
