## Newest cases

- [NTSB WPR24LA139](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/WPR24LA139), May 3, 2024: Robinson Helicopter R22 Beta (N4082J), Olympia, WA, substantial damage. Probable cause: The flight instructor’s delayed action to arrest the descending, left pedal turn while maneuvering for a low-altitude hover with the helicopter near the maximum gross weight limitation, which…
- [NTSB WPR19FA079](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/WPR19FA079), Feb 3, 2019: Cessna 414 (N414RS), Yorba Linda, CA, destroyed, 5 fatal. Probable cause: The pilot’s failure to maintain airplane control after entering instrument meteorological conditions (IMC) while climbing due to spatial disorientation, which resulted in the exceedance of the…
- [NTSB ERA17FA136](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ERA17FA136), Mar 25, 2017: Cessna T210 (N6563D), Hayden, AL, destroyed, 4 fatal. Probable cause: The pilot's decision to continue the flight into known adverse weather conditions, which resulted in spatial disorientation and a subsequent loss of airplane control and in-flight breakup.
- [NTSB ERA17FA066](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ERA17FA066), Dec 6, 2016: Fairchild SA227 (N765FA), Camilla, GA, destroyed, 1 fatal. Probable cause: The pilot's decision to initiate and continue the flight into known adverse weather conditions, which resulted spatial disorientation, a loss of airplane control, and a subsequent in-flight breakup.
- [NTSB CEN16LA197](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN16LA197), May 24, 2016: Cessna 501 (N804ST), Texarkana, AR, substantial damage. Probable cause: The pilot's failure to use supplemental oxygen as required during high-altitude flight, which resulted in his loss of consciousness following a loss of cabin pressurization. Contributing to the…
- [NTSB ERA15FA175](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ERA15FA175), Apr 1, 2015: Bedecorp BD-22 (N224BD), Fort Pierce, FL, destroyed, 1 fatal. Probable cause: The pilot's excessive pitch control inputs to the airplane’s sidestick control, which resulted in an overstress of the airframe and its subsequent in-flight breakup. Contributing to the accident was…
- [NTSB CEN13LA186](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN13LA186), Mar 4, 2013: Fisher Michael E Celebrity (N70785), Terrell, TX, destroyed, 1 fatal. Probable cause: The pilot’s exceedance of the airplane’s design stress limits while performing aerobatic maneuvers.
- [NTSB WPR12FA164](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/WPR12FA164), Apr 12, 2012: Cessna 320D (N32EG), Green River, WY, destroyed, 1 fatal. Probable cause: The pilot's failure to maintain airplane control while maneuvering in marginal weather conditions, which resulted in an exceedence of the design stress limits of the airplane and a subsequent…
- [NTSB WPR09FA234](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/WPR09FA234), May 9, 2009: Upton Bakeng Duce (N86YP), Ramona, CA, substantial damage, 2 fatal. Probable cause: An in-flight separation of the right wing, which resulted from the pilot's performance of a maneuver that produced aerodynamic loads that exceeded the wing spar’s degraded strength. The wing spar…
- [NTSB SEA08FA196](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/SEA08FA196), Sep 6, 2008: Debus J / Mountain S / Bowes E DEBUS-CASST-SNOSHOO (N102MB), Reno, NV, substantial damage, 1 fatal. Probable cause: The movement of the airplane’s modified horizontal stabilizer trim system during an intentional high speed aerobatic maneuver that resulted in exceedence of the design stress limits of the airplane…

NTSB has coded findings and defining events since 2008; earlier cases used its older occurrence and cause codes and aren't counted.

Findings: https://openairdocs.org/ntsb-findings.md. Defining events: https://openairdocs.org/ntsb-events.md. Phases of flight: https://openairdocs.org/ntsb-phases.md. Every investigation, filtered by finding, event, phase, state, year or model: https://openairdocs.org/ntsb.md (for example ?state=MI&fatal=1).

NTSB's definitions: Accident and incident, 49 CFR 830.2 (https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-49/subtitle-B/chapter-VIII/part-830/subpart-A/section-830.2), CICTT occurrence categories (PDF) (https://www.ntsb.gov/safety/data/Documents/datafiles/OccurrenceCategoryDefinitions.pdf), CICTT phases of flight (PDF) (https://www.ntsb.gov/safety/data/Documents/datafiles/PhaseofFlightDefinitions.pdf), and NTSB coding manual, before 2008 (PDF) (https://www.ntsb.gov/GILS/Documents/codman.pdf). NTSB publishes no definitions for its findings, only their names.
