## NTSB investigations on N234DM (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 IAD96LA115](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/IAD96LA115), Jul 12, 1996: Piper PA-46-310P (N234DM), Hartford, CT, destroyed. Probable cause: the pilot's inadequate preflight planning/preparation, and his failure to attain the proper lift-off airspeed, which resulted in a stall and collision with the terrain (river).

## FAA accident and incident reports on N234DM (2)

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.
