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.

At the conclusion of a repositioning flight with no passengers on board, a cabin attendant was seriously injured when she was struck by an unsecured galley cart during landing. Contrary to company training, guidance, and checklists, the cabin attendant was standing in the forward cabin, and the galley cart was left unsecured in the aft galley before touchdown. During landing and deceleration, the cart travelled the length of the cabin and collided with the unseated cabin attendant. According to the cabin attendant, the cart that struck her was part of her area of responsibility, and examination of the galley cart wheel locks and the galley cart receptacle locks after the accident revealed they operated as designed, with no anomalies noted.
NTSB Probable Cause
The cabin attendant's failure to follow published guidance and checklists before and during landing.
