## 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 CHI96LA143](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CHI96LA143), Apr 25, 1996: Cessna 172 (N18HZ), Terre Haute, IN, substantial damage. Probable cause: the pilot's improper planning/decision, which resulted in his inadequate compensation (or inability to compensate) for the wind condition. The high/gusty wind condition was a related factor.
