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
ANC11CA085
The pilot attempted to land at an off-airport site. After aborting the attempted landing, he determined that the airplane could not outclimb the terrain and selected a secondary landing site. The second site was rough, and the airplane sustained substantial damage to the left wing and left lift strut during the landing roll. There were no mechanical problems with the airplane prior to the accident.
NTSB Probable Cause
The pilot's failure to go-around soon enough to preclude the necessity of a forced landing due to the airplane's inability to outclimb ascending terrain.
