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 CEN24LA110](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN24LA110.md): Pipistrel Taurus · Waller, TX · Accident · No injuries · Class 4 · Limited · Final report · Feb 1, 2024 · N984TP · 2 aircraft · Substantial damage
  > The failure of both pilots to see and avoid one another while maneuvering, which resulted in a mid-air collision.
- [NTSB WPR17FA107](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/WPR17FA107.md): Schleicher ASW 28 18E · Ephrata, WA · Accident · 1 fatal · Field investigation · Final report · May 26, 2017 · N63KR · Substantial damage
  > The pilot's failure to maintain glider control while attempting to conduct an off-airport landing, which resulted in an aerodynamic stall and impact with terrain.
- [NTSB ERA15LA375](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ERA15LA375.md): Schempp-Hirth Ventus 2CT · Blacksburg, VA · Accident · Serious injuries · Limited investigation · Final report · Sep 24, 2015 · N710JC · Substantial damage
  > A loss of thermal lift during a motor glider flight, which resulted in an off-airport landing. Contributing to the accident was the pilot’s failure to maintain adequate clearance from power lines during the off-airport landing attempt.
- [NTSB CEN15LA253](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN15LA253.md): Schleicher ASW27 - 18E · Lamy, NM · Accident · 1 fatal · Limited investigation · Final report · Jun 3, 2015 · N297JS · Destroyed
  > A loss of glider control for reasons that could not be determined based on the available evidence and the glider’s severe fragmentation.
- [NTSB ERA12CA352](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ERA12CA352.md): Schempp-Hirth Ventus 2CT · Duncansville, PA · Accident · Serious injuries · Data collection · Final report · May 18, 2012 · N900BM · Substantial damage
  > The glider’s encounter with atmospheric lift conditions not sufficient to clear terrain, which resulted in an aerodynamic stall. Contributing to the accident was the pilot's decision to continue turning toward a ridgeline.
- [NTSB WPR09LA318](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/WPR09LA318.md): Alexander Schleicher ASW 27-18E · Ephrata, WA · Accident · 1 fatal · Limited investigation · Final report · Jun 29, 2009 · N129TD · Substantial damage
  > The pilot’s failure to maintain control of the glider during flight and his exceedance of the glider’s design limits during an attempted recovery from a spin.
- [NTSB NYC06CA198](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/NYC06CA198.md): Schempp-Hirth Discus-2CT · Julian, PA · Accident · Minor injuries · Data collection · Final report · Aug 8, 2006 · N93FR · Substantial damage
  > The pilot's delayed decision to restart the glider's engine. A factor in the accident was a loss of thermal lift.
- [NTSB FTW91LA114](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/FTW91LA114.md): Schempp-Hirth Ventus CM · Marfa, TX · Accident · No injuries · Limited investigation · Final report · Jul 2, 1991 · N9999R · Substantial damage
  > The pilot misjudged the approach. Factors were the high density altitude, the downdraft, and the dteriorted climb performance.
