Aviation safety reports, made easier to study

NTSB Reports is an independent research and search tool for public aviation accident and incident records. It brings NTSB aviation reports, structured fields, docket files, extracted figures, photos, videos, and update history into one searchable interface.

The goal is practical safety education: make it faster to find relevant investigations, compare similar events, review factual records, and understand the evidence behind probable-cause and preliminary reports.

The investigative work and source records belong to the National Transportation Safety Board and the published investigation record. This site is not affiliated with or endorsed by the NTSB.

On May 9, 2026, at 1014 eastern daylight time, a Cessna 750 airplane, N119RM, was substantially damaged when it was involved in an accident near Fort Myers, Florida. The captain and first officer were not injured. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 positioning flight. The first officer reported that on a previous flight in the accident airplane the crew had received multiple crew alerting system (CAS) messages which included a master caution (Stab Bleed Leak) and amber caution (Tail Cone Door Open) which the captain reported to maintenance. During the accident flight, on initial climb, the crew again received the CAS messages for the same master caution and amber caution repeatedly. The captain instructed the first officer to pull the audio warning circuit breaker once cruise altitude was reached, which the first officer accomplished. During approach to the airport, the first officer reported that the captain was instructing him throughout the approach. The first officer could not recall if he verbally called for the before landing checklist. The captain reported that he had begun the before landing checklist at the final approach fix but was interrupted when air traffic control issued them their landing clearance along with the master caution turning on and off. The captain reported that he did not go back over the before landing checklist after the interruption nor verbally called the checklist complete. Both crew members reported that the airplane landed with the landing gear retracted and the first officer reported that after the airplane came to a stop the captain selected the landing gear handle to the down position. A preliminary review of surveillance footage from the airport showed the airplane approaching the runway with the landing gear in the retracted position. The airplane subsequently touched down with the landing gear in the retracted position and slid to a stop on the runway. About 6 seconds after the airplane came to a stop the nose landing gear was observed beginning to deploy. A review of postaccident photographs showed that the airplane sustained substantial damage to the fuselage. The airplane was retained for further examination.
