## 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 ERA18FA194](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ERA18FA194), Jul 17, 2018: Piper PA34 (N16281), Miami, FL, destroyed, 4 fatal. Probable cause: The failure of both pilots in both airplanes to see and avoid the other airplane as they converged nearly head-on at the same altitude.
