## 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 SEA96LA117](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/SEA96LA117), Jun 9, 1996: Head Pitts S-1C (N7BH), Everett, WA, substantial damage. Probable cause: the pilot's inadequate fuel management, which resulted in fuel starvation. The aircraft's lack of a fuel quantity gauge and trees in the forced landing area were related factors.

## FAA accident and incident reports (1)
