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.

WPR21LA147

The pilot of the tailwheel-equipped airplane reported that, he was landing with a light crosswind from the left. The main landing gear touched down followed by the tailwheel and the pilot began applying the brakes while maintaining back pressure on the control stick. As the pilot increased brake pressure, the airplane veered to the left. The pilot increased power and added right rudder control, however, the airplane exited the runway. The right main landing gear collapsed, and the right wing was substantially damaged when it struck the ground. The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.

NTSB Probable Cause

The pilot's failure to maintain directional control during the landing roll with a light crosswind, which resulted in a runway excursion and collision with terrain.
