## 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.

Probable cause: PILOT-IN-COMMAND'S FAILURE TO MAINTAINED DIRECTIONAL CONTROL OF THE AIRPLANE DURING TAKEOFF. THE MISJUDGED TERRAIN WAS A CONTRIBUTING FACTOR IN THE EVENTUAL OUTCOME.
