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.

According to the pilot, the airplane touched down on the runway and as the airplane decelerated, the left main landing gear collapsed. The left wing and the left horizontal stabilizer struck the ground during the collapse, and the airplane came to rest on the north side of the runway. The airplane sustained substantial damage to the left wing, the left horizontal stabilizer, and the fuselage. Postaccident examination of the landing gear system revealed that the left main landing gear lateral pushrod end fitting failed which allowed the left main landing gear to collapse during the landing roll.
