## 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 LAX99FA102](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/LAX99FA102), Feb 4, 1999: North American T-28B (N628B), Joshua Tree, CA, destroyed, 1 fatal. Probable cause: The pilot's decision to attempt flight into an area of known adverse weather and the subsequent inadvertent VFR flight into IFR conditions resulting in an in-flight collision with mountainous terrain.
