## NTSB investigations on N5431Q (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 NYC96LA164](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/NYC96LA164), Aug 10, 1996: Cessna 152 (N5431Q), Worcester, MA, substantial damage. Probable cause: the pilot's improper recovery from a bounced landing, and his failure to maintain control of the airplane, which resulted in a nose over. His improper flare was a related factor.
