Aviation accidents and incidents where the NTSB named the cabin, seats and restraints
125 cases since 2008 in which the NTSB's findings named the cabin, seats and restraints as a cause or a contributing factor. The NTSB has coded its findings this way since 2008; earlier cases are not included. The finding is the NTSB's; the grouping into systems is this site's.
94,304 NTSB cases since 1962, each on its own page in plain English with the NTSB's probable cause and narrative, linked to the aircraft's registry record and its model. So far in 2026: 1,198 cases, 215 of them fatal, 478 people killed. No one is named on these pages.

About these pages
The records come from the NTSB's public aviation accident database, refreshed here every week. Each case has a permanent page at eflight.com/accidents/<case number>; the plain-English summary is built from the NTSB's coded fields, and the probable cause and narrative are the NTSB's own words. "Preliminary" means the investigation is still open; the final report usually follows within one to two years, and the page updates when it does. Pilots, passengers and other people involved are not named, the site's policy at this time. Where the aircraft is still on the U.S. register, the page links to its registry record; where the model has a page here, it links to that too.
