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
WPR25LA009

The operator of the airplane reported that, with the pilot receiving instruction at the flight controls, the approach airspeed for landing was higher than normal. The airplane touched down hard onto the runway and bounced twice. Although the crew attempted to perform a go-around, the airplane bounced a third time and the nose gear collapsed, which resulted in substantial damage to the composite section of the lower fuselage. The operator reported no preaccident mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airframe or engine that would have precluded a normal operation

NTSB Probable Cause

The pilot receiving instruction’s failure to maintain airspeed during landing and the flight instructor’s delayed remedial action, which resulted in a hard landing.
