National Transportation Safety Board:
Summaries from the NTSB aviation accident database are updated daily on the web.
The database contains information from 1983 and later about civil aviation
accidents within the United States, its territories and possessions, and in
international waters. Incidents investigated by the Safety Board are also
contained in the database in the same form as accidents.
Generally, a preliminary report is available online within a few days of an
accident. Factual information is added when available, and when the
investigation is completed, the preliminary report is replaced with a final
description of the accident and its probable cause.
Full narrative descriptions may not be not available for dates before 1993,
cases under revision, or where NTSB did not have primary investigative
responsibility.
