## 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 ATL92LA061](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ATL92LA061), Mar 12, 1992: Cessna 150M (N8159V), Jesup, GA, substantial damage. Probable cause: THE FAILURE OF THE PILOT TO PROPERLY COMPENSATE FOR THE CROSSWIND RESULTING IN FAILURE TO MAINTAIN DIRECTIONAL CONTROL DURING LANDING. A FACTOR WAS THE CROSSWIND CONDITION.
