## Information bulletins (advisory)

None matched.

## NTSB investigations

None matched to N1073W.

## FAA accident and incident reports (1)

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model.

- [Incident 19850729042509I](https://openairdocs.org/incident/19850729042509I), Jul 29, 1985: Bell 206L1 (N1073W), Venice, LA, Minor damage. Engine failed explosively on takeoff autorotation without damage. Found failed turbine wheel.

## Service difficulty reports

None filed for this aircraft. Matched to this aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported serial number, make and model.

## Service difficulty reports on N1073W not matched to an aircraft (26)

They name N1073W, but no registry record covers the date, the aircraft registered then was built later, or the report describes another aircraft.
