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 of the tailwheel-equipped airplane reported that, during the landing roll, a wind gust from the left caused the left wing to rise. The airplane veered right, and he added full aileron, rudder, and brake to recover to no avail. The pilot stated he heard a "loud noise," the airplane veered sharply, and it then came to rest on an adjacent taxiway. The airplane sustained substantial damage to the right wing. The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation. The automated weather observation station at the airport reported that, about 23 minutes before the accident, the wind was from 330° at 10 knots. The airplane landed on runway 32.
