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.

NTSB Number
ERA22LA057

The pilot reported that he was attempting a takeoff in a tailwheel-equipped airplane in crosswind conditions. During the takeoff roll there was a sudden gust of wind that struck the airplane pushing it to the side. The pilot was unable to compensate for the sudden gust and it veered off the side of the runway into the grass and came to rest nose low, which resulted in substantial damage to the right wing. The pilot reported that it happened too fast, and he could not stop it. He further stated that there were no preimpact mechanical malfunctions or failures that would have precluded normal operation.

NTSB Probable Cause

The pilot’s failure to maintain directional control during takeoff, which resulted in a runway excursion and substantial damage.
