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.

CEN12CA612
The pilot reported that the airplane bounced twice during landing. After the second bounce, the pilot executed an aborted landing. He stated that during the aborted landing, he was concerned that the airplane would not clear obstacles at the end of the runway and elected to land the airplane on the remaining runway. The airplane went off the end of the runway, through a fence, and onto a road. The airplane's right main landing gear was separated and the right wing sustained substantial damage. The pilot listed no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions of the airplane that would have precluded normal operation. The pilot commented in his report that an earlier decision to execute the aborted landing may have prevented the accident.
NTSB Probable Cause
The pilot's delay in executing the aborted landing, which resulted in a runway excursion.
