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.

On June 26, 2026, about 1045 eastern daylight time, a Boeing/Jones 75, N3993C, was substantially damaged when it was involved in an accident near Cleveland, Georgia. The pilot and passenger sustained minor injuries. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 personal flight. The pilot reported that the accident flight was the first flight after an annual inspection was completed on the airplane on May 11, 2026. During the initial climb after takeoff, just above the trees, the climb performance degraded and the airplane could not gain altitude, as if the engine was not developing full power. The pilot then initiated a slow, right turn in an attempt to return to the airport; however, he observed that he did not have enough altitude to clear obstacles back to the airport and elected to perform a forced landing in a cornfield. During the landing, the airplane impacted corn and uneven terrain, which resulted in a hard landing and main landing gear collapse. The airplane then nosed over and came to rest inverted. Initial examination of the wreckage by an FAA inspector revealed substantial damage to the wings, vertical stabilizer, and rudder. The wreckage was retained for further examination.
