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 upon touchdown the airplane bounced twice. As the airplane slowed, the pilot applied the brakes, and the airplane veered to the right. He corrected with hard left rudder; however, the airplane then veered to the left and exited the runway surface. Subsequently, the airplane ground looped, and the left wing struck the ground, which resulted in substantial damage to the left aileron. The pilot reported that there were 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 24 with wind from 240° at 11 knots.
