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 reported that while enroute to his destination, he experienced a loss of power to his left engine about 10 miles from the airport. Shortly after, the right engine experienced a loss of power, and the pilot maneuvered the airplane for an off-airport landing on a paved road. During the descent, the airplane struck power lines along the side of the road, causing substantial damage to the left wing. Upon subsequent investigation by a Federal Aviation Administration air safety inspector, it was determined that the airplane's fuel tanks were empty.
