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.

WPR22LA117

The pilot of the powered parachute reported that, about two weeks before the accident flight, he changed the throttle linkage connection to the throttle quadrant from the original connection to pull back for full throttle to push forward for full throttle. During the accident flight he was maneuvering the powered parachute to avoid powerlines, and mistakenly pulled the throttle back to gain altitude and subsequently cut engine power. Unable to clear the powerlines he immediately made a hard left turn and impacted the rising terrain. The powered parachute was destroyed during the post accident fire. The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the powered parachute that would have precluded normal operation.

NTSB Probable Cause

The pilot’s improper throttle input which resulted in a loss of engine power and subsequent impact with terrain.
