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.

WPR24LA297
The pilot reported that following a local area flight he was coming back to land at his home airport. He performed a normal traffic pattern for a full stop landing. Upon touchdown, the airplane bounced four times, which increased in intensity before he was able to add power and get the airplane airborne. The airplane flew about 20 ft before the pilot landed again without incident. The airplane sustained substantial damage to the airframe and engine mount. The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
