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 performed a preflight and no anomalies were noted with the airplane. The pilot flew the airplane to another airport, performed a touch-and-go landing maneuver, and returned to the original departure airport. During the landing roll, the pilot applied the brakes, the airplane veered to the left, and departed the left side of the runway. The airplane continued through the grass, struck the taxiway pavement, and the nose wheel separated from the airplane. The airplane traveled across the taxiway and when it impacted the grass on the other side of the taxiway, the airplane nosed over, and came to rest inverted, which resulted in substantial damage to the rudder. A postaccident examination of the airplane revealed no preimpact mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation. The pilot reported no preimpact mechanical malfunctions and that "better control of braking" may have prevented the accident.
