NTSB puts accident dockets online

By Janice Wood · June 3, 2009 ·

The NTSB began to release all accident investigation public dockets to its public Web site on June 1, in accordance with the board’s Freedom of Information Act Improvement plan.

“I am proud that the NTSB is…making all accident investigation documents contained in our public dockets available to NTSB Web site visitors,” said acting chairman Mark Rosenker. “The Safety Board’s reputation for comprehensive and thorough investigations can only be further enhanced by providing such easy access to the materials related to the accidents we investigate.”

To see the NTSB dockets, visit the Electronic Reading Room on the agency’s Web site and select the list of dockets, which are organized by transportation mode.
