## 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 CHI95LA120](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CHI95LA120), Apr 8, 1995: Piper PA-32-260 (N3631W), St. Clair, MO, destroyed, 1 fatal. Probable cause: the pilot's impairment of judgment and performance due to drugs which led to his operating the airplane with a known mechanical deficiency.
