## 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 ANC97FA002](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ANC97FA002), Oct 2, 1996: Piper PA-18 (N64RS), Palmer, AK, destroyed, 1 fatal. Probable cause: the pilot's inadequate compensation for wind conditions and failure to maintain adequate airspeed, which resulted in an inadvertent stall. The unfavorable wind condition was a related factor.
- [NTSB ANC90FA051](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ANC90FA051), Apr 8, 1990: Piper PA-18 (N64RS), Chugiak, AK, substantial damage. Probable cause: THE PILOT LOST DIRECTIONAL CONTROL DURING THE LANDING ROLL AS A RESULT OF IMPROPER BRAKING.
