How do I check the safety record of an aircraft or airline?

Type an aircraft model, airline, airport or tail number into the search box — FlightFinder opens its safety profile with accident history, incident reports and hazard data from official sources.

Where does the safety data come from?

From official public sources — NTSB, FAA, NASA ASRS, EASA and other national authorities — normalized into one database. Methodology and source list are published on the site, and the dataset has a citable DOI.

Aviation safety data

Aviation safety data on every aircraft, airline and airport

FlightFinder is a safety data hub, not a booking site: look up any aircraft type, airline, or airport and see its accident and incident history, wildlife-strike and airport context, the route turbulence outlook, and the arithmetic behind the safety score — aggregated from official investigative authorities into one searchable database.
