## 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 ATL04LA013](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ATL04LA013), Oct 12, 2003: Cessna 172P (N52254), Pell City, AL, substantial damage. Probable cause: The pilot's inadequate compensation for wind and his failure to maintain directional control during landing. A factor was the crosswind.
