## 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 CHI06CA253](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CHI06CA253), Sep 3, 2006: Hedeman Tailwind W8 (N4FD), Platteville, WI, substantial damage. Probable cause: The loss of engine power as a result of the pilot's inadequate preflight which resulted in a blocked fuel vent that led to fuel starvation.
