## NTSB investigations

None matched to N1LG.

## NTSB investigations on N1LG not matched to an aircraft (1)

From the NTSB's public API. Aircraft are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported serial number, make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model.

- [NTSB MIA83FA066](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/MIA83FA066), Jan 30, 1983: Bellanca 17-31A (N1LG), Archer, FL, destroyed

## FAA accident and incident reports

None matched to N1LG.

## Reports on N1LG not matched to an aircraft (1)

They name N1LG, but no registry record covers the date, the aircraft registered then was built later, or the report describes another aircraft.

- [Accident 19830130001619A](https://openairdocs.org/incident/19830130001619A), Jan 30, 1983: Blanca 1731A (N1LG), Archer, FL, Destroyed. Lost cintrol during a nose high early liftoff. Aircraft rolled into trees bordering the grass runway.

## 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.

## STCs that may be installed (OpenAirDocs)

None matched to this aircraft's models.

## Earlier aircraft with N1LG

The FAA can reassign an N-number once a registration is cancelled. These aircraft carried N1LG before.

- [Cancelled (date not recorded)](https://openairdocs.org/deregistered/N1LG-undated): Bellanca 17-31A, S/N 7432143
