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 pilot was practicing takeoffs and landings; on the fourth landing roll, while at an airspeed of about 30 miles per hour, the airplane veered to the left. The airplane departed the runway surface at a 90-degree angle, and the right wing sustained substantial damage when it contacted the terrain. The airplane made a 360-degree turn in the grass before it returned to the runway. The pilot reported the airplane had a tendency to swerve on the ground, especially on hot days with little to no wind. The wind at the time of the accident was reported as calm. The pilot reported that there was no mechanical failure or malfunction of the airplane that would have resulted in the loss of control.

NTSB Probable Cause

The pilot's failure to maintain directional control of the airplane during the landing roll.
