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.

According to the pilot, he performed several water touch and go landings on different lakes and elected to perform one more before going back to the destination airport. During the landing, the airplane banked to the right, the right float touched the water, and the airplane veered "sharply" to the right. It struck the bank of the lake resulting in substantial damage to the fuselage. The airplane came to rest on the bank and the pilot and passenger egressed without issue. The pilot reported no preimpact mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
