## 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 CHI95LA284](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CHI95LA284), Aug 10, 1995: Van Zwoll Viking (N69VZ), Decker, IN, substantial damage. Probable cause: the failure of the head gasket resulting in a coolant leak and subsequent engine overtemperature. A factor was the unsuitable terrain encountered in the cornfield.
