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 pilot of the tailwheel-equipped airplane reported that he and his three passengers were returning to the airport after a local area flight. During the landing flare, the left wing lifted, and the airplane touched down on the right main landing gear tire, side loading the landing gear. The pilot was not able to level the airplane, and the tail began to drift to the right, which increased the side load to the right main landing gear. As a result, the right main landing gear collapsed, and the right wing and propeller struck the runway. The pilot reported no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation. At the time of the accident, the pilot was landing on runway 30 with wind from 230° at 8 knots.
