## 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 NYC96LA086](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/NYC96LA086), Apr 19, 1996: Hughes 269A (N8084E), Linden, NJ, destroyed. Probable cause: improper flare by the pilot, and his failure to take proper corrective action after the helicopter touched down hard and entered ground resonance.

## FAA accident and incident reports (1)

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model.
