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 was conducting his first solo flight. He reported that during the first landing attempt he flared the airplane too early, which resulted in a bounced landing. He pitched the nose down and the airplane bounced into the air again, then the pitched the nose up. The airplane stalled and impacted the runway in a nose low attitude, which resulted in the nose landing gear collapse and substantial damage to the left wing. The student pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
