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.
Magee, MS
The pilot reported that during landing approach, when the airplane was about 50 ft above the ground, he pulled back on the engine power and the airplane stalled. The pilot applied 100% power to perform a go-around, but the left main landing gear struck the ground and the airplane bounced before becoming airborne again. The pilot flew the airplane back to the departure airport where he performed an overflight to ensure the landing gear was extended and landed uneventfully. The pilot noted in his report that fuel was leaking out of the left wing after the event. The manufacturer of the airplane performed an alignment symmetry inspection which revealed abnormal distortion and twisting of the left wing. The manufacturer recommended replacement of the left wing and placement of the fuselage in a fuselage jig to check for potential hidden damage.
The pilot exceeded the airplane’s critical angle of attack during the landing approach resulting in an aerodynamic stall and subsequent hard landing.
