## 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 CHI96LA026](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CHI96LA026), Nov 5, 1995: Cessna 150 (N21960), Wabash, IN, substantial damage. Probable cause: deer that went onto the runway as the aircraft was landing. The light condition at dusk was a related factor.
