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 of the airplane reported that while on approach to land on a dirt runway, the airplane was “a little higher than normal.” The airplane landed a couple of hundred feet from the departure end of the runway. During the landing roll, he maneuvered the airplane to avoid a mudhole on the runway. As the pilot realigned the airplane back to runway centerline, he noted that the airplane was traveling too fast as it approached the departure end of the runway. The airplane departed the end of the runway, impacted the departure end runway’s rock boundary markers, and came to rest inverted. The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
NTSB Probable Cause
The pilot’s failure to attain a proper touchdown point during landing which resulted in a runway excursion and subsequent nose over.
