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 had previously performed three uneventful landings and elected to depart for a final landing. The pilot initiated the takeoff roll from but started to lose directional control, drifting from one side of the runway to the other. When the left main tire was in tall vegetation adjacent to the runway he decided to continue the takeoff but the airplane veered more to the left and entered taller vegetation. While slowing the airplane nosed over, and both of the right wing’s lift struts were substantially damaged. The pilot reported, and a postaccident examination of the airplane confirmed, that there were no preimpact mechanical malfunctions or failures of the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
NTSB Probable Cause
The pilot’s failure to maintain directional control during the takeoff roll resulting in a runway excursion, and subsequent nose over.
