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.

The student pilot reported that, while on final for a touch and go landing, the airplane was a bit high, but with plenty of runway remaining. The airplane touched down and bounced twice. The student pilot elected to go around. During the go around the left horizontal stabilator struck a runway light which resulted in substantial damage. The student pilot continued to fly the traffic pattern and subsequently landed without further incident. The student pilot stated that there were no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operations.

NTSB Probable Cause

The student pilot's failure to maintain directional control of the airplane during the takeoff phase of a touch and go landing.
