## 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 FTW04LA071](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/FTW04LA071), Feb 8, 2004: Beech BE-23 (N234DD), Mena, AR, substantial damage. Probable cause: The loss of engine power for undetermined reasons and the pilot's misjudgment of altitude and distance during the forced landing which resulted in a collision with trees and transmission wires.
