The Soaring Safety Foundation regularly reviews the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) aviation addicent data base to determine the root causes of soaring accidents. While this data can help in improving the safety culture of US soaring pilots, it does not capture all accidents nor does it capture incidents.

In an effort to capture trends that may help prevent future accidents, the SSF has prepared this Soaring Incident Reporting Form. Using this form, you can anomyously submit confidential information to the SSF Trustees. We will use this information to help design training and safety programs that may help reduce the number of US Soaring accidents.
