## 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 ATL96FA027](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ATL96FA027), Dec 26, 1995: Piper J-3-C65 (N3615K), Belzoni, MS, substantial damage, 2 fatal. Probable cause: failure of the student pilot to maintain adequate airspeed, while maneuvering, which resulted in a stall/spin and subsequent collision with the ground.
