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 reported that during the arrival to the airport the wind was light and variable. The airplane touched down on the runway longer and faster than desired, but the pilot did not perform a go-around. The airplane subsequently overshot the end of the runway and collided with trees, which damaged both wings. The pilot reported no preaccident mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.

NTSB Probable Cause

The pilot's improper approach to landing and his failure to perform a go-around, which resulted in a runway overshoot and collision with trees.
