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 made two uneventful night full-stop landings, noting "swirling winds" on final approach that were "strange" but had "no considerable impact." As he flared for the third landing, the airplane "went nose down in a quick motion." He heard the nose gear strut collapse so he added power and made a go-around. He then landed uneventfully. Post-accident examination revealed the firewall and related structural components had been bent. There were also 1/6-inch nicks on two of the three propeller blade tips. According to the airport's AWOS (Automated Weather Observing System), the wind was calm at the time of the accident.
