## NTSB investigations (2)

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 ATL05CA019](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ATL05CA019), Nov 3, 2004: Cessna 172N (N4874G), Columbia, SC, substantial damage. Probable cause: The pilot's inadequate preflight planning of fuel required for the flight, which resulted in fuel exhaustion and subsequent loss of engine power.
- [NTSB ATL04CA089](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ATL04CA089), Apr 3, 2004: Cessna 172N (N4874G), Statesboro, GA, substantial damage. Probable cause: The pilot's failure to establish a positive climb and his failure to maintain clearance during a go-around, which resulted in an in-flight collision with trees. A factor was the gusting winds.
