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.
Holly Hill, SC
According to a witness, during the takeoff, the airplane veered to the left and impacted a hangar and trees before coming to rest. Photos of the airplane showed that the airplane’s wings, fuselage, and empennage were substantially damaged. Multiple attempts to contact the pilot were unsuccessful, and the airplane could not examined following the accident. The witness’s description of the airplane’s flightpath is consistent with a loss of control during the takeoff; however, the reason for the loss of control could not be determined based on the available information.

On February 24, 2022, about 1145 eastern standard time, a Flightstar II, N194PG, was substantially damaged when it was involved in an accident near Holly Hill, South Carolina. The pilot was seriously injured. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 personal flight. A witness was in his hangar at the airport when he first heard the airplane. He saw the airplane’s shadow on the centerline of the runway before it veered left, the “engine got really loud,” and the airplane impacted the hangar. The airplane continued over the hangar and struck trees before impacting the ground. The witness ran to the airplane and noted that the engine was still running. He turned it off, and then began assisting the pilot. Photographs taken at the accident site showed that the wings, fuselage, and empennage were substantially damaged. The pilot was contacted multiple times; however, he did not respond. The owner of the hangar where the airplane was being stored was contacted multiple times and he did not respond. Therefore, the wreckage could not be examined.
