## 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 FTW93LA012](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/FTW93LA012), Oct 14, 1992: Mooney M20J (N201BL), Mexia, TX, substantial damage. Probable cause: THE PILOT FUELED THE AIRCRAFT WITH JET FUEL INSTEAD OF AVAITION GASOLINE.
