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 private pilot was taking off on a personal local flight, under Title 14, CFR Part 91. He reported that during takeoff, the airplane encountered a gust of wind which he was unable to counter with rudder and aileron. He said he pulled the throttle to abort the takeoff, but the airplane ground-looped to the left, the right main landing gear collapsed, and the right wing struck the ground. He said the right wing sustained substantial damage during the accident. He said there were no mechanical problems with the airplane prior to the accident.
NTSB Probable Cause
The pilot's failure to maintain directional control during takeoff, resulting in a ground-loop, and collapse of the right main landing gear.
