## 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 LAX05CA190](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/LAX05CA190), May 28, 2005: S.A. Centrair Pegase 101D (N70LE), Williams, CA, substantial damage. Probable cause: loss of thermal lift during flight that resulted in a forced landing in an area without suitable landing terrain. Also causal was the pilot's inadequate compensation for the existing crosswind.
