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.

According to the pilot, he flew a visual approach at the normal airspeed prescribed by the airplane owner's manual. The pilot stated that once over the runway he began reducing power and, about 60 knots, began to flare the airplane. Subsequently, the airplane ballooned, dropped, and then bounced, striking the tail of the airplane and then the propeller on the runway which resulted in substantial damage to the aft bulkhead. The pilot reported no preimpact mechanical malfunctions or abnormalities with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation. The recorded wind at the time of the accident was 120 degrees at 3 knots.
