Yeah it's absolutely amazing. Because there's so few accidents now, and so few that need serious professional NTSB analysis on, I've heard the FAA is trying to turn to self-reporting on accidents to help build out the picture of aircraft failure modes. They've apparently established a complex system of self-reporting combined with deidentification in order to encourage people to provide data.
