## 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 MIA03LA099](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/MIA03LA099), Apr 27, 2003: Cessna 172D (N2371U), South Ponotoc, MS, substantial damage. Probable cause: the pilot's failure to maintain altitude and aircraft control during a low pass over a grass runway, which resulted in the airplane impacting the ground.
