Overall Trends
Total, fatal, and serious accidents in the selected range.
Search investigations, review source evidence, monitor watched reports, and trace long-term patterns from one calm, data-first workspace.
Fast key and full-text search with live filters, watches, and precise metadata.
Use quotes for exact phrase matches (for example "fuel selector valve").
Track fatal and non-fatal accident patterns across Part 91, Part 135, and Part 121 operations.
Major cases, deep-report coverage, and investigation media across decades of NTSB history.
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.
Winnemucca, NV
The pilot reported that, during landing, the airplane touched down and bounced. He aborted the landing, but the airplane did not climb although the engine was operating at full power. The airplane veered to the right and became momentarily airborne as it exited the runway. The airplane struck the ground hard and nosed over. The airplane sustained substantial damage to both wings, the fuselage, and the empennage. The METAR at the time of the accident reported that the wind was calm and that skies were clear. The temperature was 99°F, and the altimeter setting was 30.12 inches of mercury.
The pilot’s improper landing flare, which resulted in a bounced landing, and his subsequent loss of airplane control during an attempted aborted landing.

The airplane veered to the right and became momentarily airborne as it exited the runway. The airplane struck the ground hard and nosed over. The airplane sustained substantial damage to both wings, the fuselage, and the empennage. The METAR at the accident airport during the time of the accident reported that the wind was calm, and skies were clear. The temperature was 99°F and the altimeter setting was 30.12. The field elevation was 4,130ft. The density altitude was 7,753ft. Three days prior to the accident, the pilot had requested that a maintenance shop examine the airplane engine's performance. The pilot had expressed concern for a rough running engine when operating about 1,000 RPM. The maintenance shop performed a visual inspection, a run-up check, and a magneto drop check. The airplane was returned to the pilot with the assertion that there were no anomalies or malfunctions found.
