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 pilot reported that she decided to fly the airplane from the right seat due to a headset plugin issue on the left side and noted that she had not flown from the right seat before without a flight instructor onboard. On short final, to an unfamiliar airport, the pilot thought she was slow and increased the throttle, simultaneously she pushed forward on the yoke which resulted in the nose gear impacting the grass just prior to the runway. The airplane came to rest inverted and sustained substantial damage to both wings and rudder. The pilot reported no pre-impact mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.

NTSB Probable Cause

The pilot’s improper landing flare which resulted in the airplane contacting the ground short of the runway.
