## 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 NYC08FA071](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/NYC08FA071), Dec 30, 2007: Bell 206L-3 (N109AE), Cherokee, AL, substantial damage, 3 fatal. Probable cause: The pilot's failure to maintain control of the helicopter during an out-of-ground-effect hover. Contributing to the accident was a loss of tail rotor effectiveness.
