Move quickly by aircraft, airport, operator, and time with indexes built for research, not wandering.
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.
Clermont, FL
The student pilot was landing the glider on runway 36, a 3,000-foot-long, 200-foot-wide, turf runway. During the landing roll, the glider veered off the right side of the runway and struck a gazebo, which resulted in substantial damage to the glider's right wing and fuselage. The student pilot did not reside in the United States and subsequently returned to his country of residence. The accident was reported to the NTSB by a Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) inspector about 4 months later. Efforts to contact the student pilot were unsuccessful. The student pilot's total flight experience, and flight experience in the airplane make and model, could not be determined. According to an FAA inspector, there were no known or reported mechanical malfunctions with the glider that would have precluded normal operation. Winds reported at an airport located about 21 miles south of the accident site, around the time of the accident, were from 110 degrees at 10 knots.
