## 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 CEN13LA381](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN13LA381), Jun 30, 2013: Beech C23 (N3KT), Hot Springs, AR, substantial damage. Probable cause: The pilots’ failure to monitor and manage fuel consumption during cruise flight, which resulted in fuel exhaustion and a subsequent forced landing.
