NTSB Accidents

Probable cause: The pilot’s delayed decision to land the airplane with insufficient runway remaining after realizing the airplane wasn’t climbing.

Probable cause: The pilot’s inadequate compensation for a tailwind, which resulted in a runway overrun.

Probable cause: The pilot’s improper landing flare while landing on water with glassy water conditions, which resulted in the airplane nosing over.

Probable cause: The pilot’s improper fuel planning, which resulted in a total loss of engine power due to fuel exhaustion.

Probable cause: The pilot’s inadequate in-flight fuel planning, which resulted in a loss of engine power due to fuel exhaustion.

Probable cause: The student pilot’s failure to maintain directional control during landing.

Probable cause: The pilot’s failure to extend the landing gear before landing, which resulted in a gear-up landing and a runway overrun.

Probable cause: The pilot’s exceedance of the biplane’s critical angle of attack during initial climb, which resulted in an aerodynamic stall and collision with trees.

Probable cause: The pilot receiving instruction’s failure to maintain directional control during landing.
