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 student pilot was taxiing to the ramp after her second solo flight. As she entered the ramp area and taxied along the painted centerline, she misjudged the clearance between the airplane’s wingtip and a parked work truck, and the outboard portion of the airplane’s right wing struck the truck. The airplane pivoted right and the propeller impacted the back of the truck before coming to rest. The airplane’s right wing was substantially damaged. The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
