## NTSB investigations on N43S (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 DEN69D0197](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/DEN69D0197), Mar 16, 1969: Pitts Spcl SC-1 (N43S), El Paso, TX, substantial damage
