## NTSB investigations (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 CEN10LA474](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN10LA474), Aug 11, 2010: Cessna A185F (N4492), Farmington, NM, substantial damage. Probable cause: Pre-existing damage of the through-bolt that attached the inboard end of the gear leg to the airframe hard-point, likely caused during maintenance on the gear.

## 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.

- [Accident 20100811043609A](https://openairdocs.org/incident/20100811043609A), Aug 11, 2010: Cessna A185F (N4492), Farmington, NM, Substantial damage. After 4.5 hours of cross country flight from kssf, the pilot approached kfnm for a fuel stop. The approach and touchdown on runway 25 were normal. On landing…

## 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 N4492 not matched to an aircraft (1)

They name N4492, but no registry record covers the date, the aircraft registered then was built later, or the report describes another aircraft.

- [SDR QMLA2015082415076](https://openairdocs.org/sdr/QMLA2015082415076), Aug 24, 2015: CANOPY. DELAMINATED. DELAMINATION FOUND ON THE NOSE CANOPY BUBBLE JUST FWD OF THE LT PILOT DOOR. THE DELAMINATED AREA IS APPROX 2.5" X 2" LONG AT STATION X970 & Z2600.

## STCs that may be installed (OpenAirDocs) (527, first 50)

Approved for this aircraft's airframe or engine model, in force first, then newest. The registry doesn't record which STCs an aircraft has; its records do.
