# NTSB investigations, OR: Landing area undershoot

NTSB aviation accident and incident investigations since 1962: the probable cause, findings, aircraft, crew, weather and docket of each, linked to the FAA registry and the FAA’s own reports.

## Latest cases

- [NTSB GAA18CA254](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/GAA18CA254.md): Beech 58 · Sisters, OR · Accident · No injuries · Data collection · Final report · May 5, 2018 · N222BD · Substantial damage
  > The pilot’s failure to maintain sufficient altitude during approach in gusting crosswind conditions, which resulted in an attempted rejected landing and a runway undershoot.
- [NTSB WPR18LA005](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/WPR18LA005.md): Piper PA 24-250 · Hillsboro, OR · Accident · Serious injuries · Class 3 · Limited · Final report · Oct 5, 2017 · N7892P · Substantial damage
  > The student's pilot’s failure to maintain adequate airspeed during approach and subsequent exceedance of the critical angle of attack during a go-around, which resulted in an aerodynamic stall and a subsequent hard landing. Contributing to the accident was…
- [NTSB WPR17LA082](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/WPR17LA082.md): OTT 601XL-B · The Dalles, OR · Accident · Minor injuries · Limited investigation · Final report · Mar 31, 2017 · N610TT · Substantial damage
  > A partial loss of engine power due to the reverse bending fatigue failure of the propeller hub bolts, which resulted from the bolts not fitting tightly into the propeller hub holes. Also causal was the pilot's decision to use improper bolts for this type of…
- [NTSB GAA16CA122](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/GAA16CA122.md): Cessna 175 · Gold Beach, OR · Accident · No injuries · Data collection · Final report · Feb 8, 2016 · N6951E · Substantial damage
  > The pilot's failure to maintain an approach angle of descent to avoid obstacles, resulting in the airplane striking the airport perimeter fence.
- [NTSB WPR16LA049](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/WPR16LA049.md): Kai Engstad RV-8A · Salem, OR · Accident · No injuries · Limited investigation · Final report · Jan 2, 2016 · N958RV · Substantial damage
  > A total loss of engine power for undetermined reasons, because postaccident examination of the engine and fuel system did not reveal any anomalies that would have precluded normal operation.
- [NTSB LAX08CA262](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/LAX08CA262.md): Let Blanik L-13 · Bend, OR · Accident · Minor injuries · Data collection · Final report · Aug 9, 2008 · N62345 · Substantial damage
  > The pilot's misjudged distance/altitude which resulted in an undershoot while on final approach to land. Factors contributing to the accident were the lack of thermal lift (sinking air), and the lack of suitable terrain for the off-airport landing.
- [NTSB LAX08CA278](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/LAX08CA278.md): Piper PA-22 · St. Paul, OR · Accident · No injuries · Data collection · Final report · Jul 31, 2008 · N2441P · Substantial damage
  > The pilot's misjudged altitude, speed, and subsequent failure to attain the proper touchdown point while landing.
