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.

NTSB Number
ERA24LA383
The pilot of the tailwheel-equipped airplane reported that after landing, inbound traffic was behind him, and he felt rushed to clear the runway and park the airplane. While taxiing to the ramp, the left main wheel rolled off the taxiway surface and into the grass. The left main landing gear’s axle separated from the landing gear leg, the airplane tipped over to the left, and the left wing struck the ground and was substantially damaged. Examination of photographs of the landing gear leg and axle fracture surfaces showed that they displayed indications of fatigue cracking that likely initiated at the toe of the weld that attached the axle to the leg.
NTSB Probable Cause
A failure of the left main landing gear due to fatigue cracking, which resulted the airplane’s left wing contacting the ground.
