## 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 FTW96LA360](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/FTW96LA360), Aug 25, 1996: Cresap Early Bird Jenny (N12JN), Kersey, CO, destroyed. Probable cause: Failure of the throttle linkage. A related factor was the lack of suitable terrain for the forced landing.
