ABOUT FLIGHT INCIDENT FILES
Making aviation safety data accessible, searchable, and understandable for pilots, researchers, and aviation enthusiasts.
OUR MISSION
The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) publishes thousands of aviation accident and incident investigation reports each year. These reports contain invaluable lessons for aviation safety, but they're often difficult to search, navigate, and digest.
Flight Incident Files transforms this wealth of safety data into an accessible, searchable archive. We believe that learning from past incidents is one of the most effective ways to prevent future accidents.
Whether you're a student pilot studying for checkrides, a professional aviator conducting safety research, or simply curious about aviation incidents, our platform makes it easy to find and understand the information you need.
