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.

As the airplane touched down in a “full stall three point landing” the pilot said that he encountered a gust of wind that lifted the right wing and that he could not prevent the airplane from drifting to the left. He applied power and attempted a go-around, but the airplane became airborne for only a “short distance” before impacting terrain on the left side of the runway. There was substantial damage to the right wing, right main landing gear, and structural damage to the fuselage; there were no injuries to the two persons on board.
