## 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 CHI94LA110](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CHI94LA110), Mar 11, 1994: Beech C23 (N5258M), Aurora, NE, substantial damage. Probable cause: an inadequate fuel supply for the flight and the pilot's failure to refuel while en route. A factor related to the accident was the soft terrain on which the airplane was landed.
