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.

CEN25LA068

The pilot reported that during the takeoff roll, at 50 knots, he felt a quick shake/wiggle and the airplane turned hard left due to a left main landing gear tire failure. The pilot stated that he reduced engine power and applied right rudder pedal control input as much as possible, but the airplane continued to pull left. The airplane exited the left side of the runway and impacted trees. The airplane came to rest on its left side and a postcrash fire ensued that destroyed the airplane. The postcrash fire precluded any examination to determine the cause of the accident.

NTSB Probable Cause

The loss of directional control during the takeoff roll for undermined reasons that resulted in an impact with trees.
