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.

The flight instructor reported that, during the touch-and-go landings, she observed that the student was struggling to maintain traffic pattern altitude and that the airplane was excessively left of the runway centerline. She told him that he would not be allowed to land until the airplane was on the centerline. During the accident landing, the airplane was left of the runway centerline, and she asked him to correct. He corrected, and she anticipated a full landing. During the landing flare, the airplane drifted left, and she instructed the student to perform a go-around. The student aggressively pitched up the airplane, and she heard the stall warning horn and the stall audio annunciation. She took the flight controls and lowered the nose, but the airplane continued to drift left. The student's statement corroborated the instructor's statement. The airplane sustained substantial damage to the fuselage and left wing. The flight instructor reported that there were no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation. The automated weather observation station located about 9 miles south of the accident airport reported that, about 5 minutes after the accident, the wind was from 290° at 9 knots, gusting to 15 knots. The student landed the airplane on runway 34.
The student pilot's exceedance of the airplane’s critical angle of attack during a go-around, which resulted in an aerodynamic stall, and the flight instructor's delayed remedial action.
The student pilot reported that, during a touch and go landing, they were about 5 to 10 ft left of runway centerline. The flight instructor told him to perform a go around and, during the climb, the airplane aerodynamically stalled. The instructor took the flight controls, the airplane drifted left, and impacted cars and "other ground objects." The flight instructor reported that, during the touch and go landings, she observed the student pilot was struggling to maintain traffic pattern altitude and was excessively left of runway centerline. She discussed with him that he would not be allowed to land until on centerline. During the accident landing, the student was left of runway centerline and she asked him to correct. He corrected and she anticipated a full landing. During the landing flare, the airplane drifted left and she instructed him to perform a go around. The student aggressively pitched up and she heard the stall warning horn and the stall audio annunciation. She took the flight controls and lowered the nose, but the airplane continued to drift left. The airplane impacted cars and a hangar. The airplane sustained substantial damage to the fuselage and left wing. The flight instructor reported that there were no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation. The automated weather observation station located about 9 miles south of the accident airport reported that, about 5 minutes after the accident, the wind was from 290° at 9 knots, gusting to 15 knots.
