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.

Full Narrative

On October 8, 2019, about 1445 central daylight time, a Beech A36 airplane, N396JG, was substantially damaged when it was involved in an accident near Waukesha, Wisconsin. The pilot and passenger were uninjured. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 personal flight. According to information obtained by Federal Aviation Administration inspectors, the airplane departed the Waukesha County Airport (KUES), Waukesha, Wisconsin, using runway 18. About 200 ft above ground level, while still over the departure end of the runway, the engine lost total power. The pilot attempted to land on the remaining runway but overran the departure end. The airplane continued over an embankment and collided with terrain, which resulted in substantial damage to the left wing. The airplane was equipped with an Allison 250-B17F/2 engine via Supplemental Type Certificate on February 15, 2003. The engine was examined on the airframe before being removed for a detailed examination. Examination of the engine did not find any anomalies that would have contributed to the loss of engine power. The propeller overspeed governor and propeller power turbine governor were also tested. No anomalies were detected with either governor.
