## 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 ERA15LA301](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ERA15LA301), Aug 9, 2015: Cessna 172 (N8370X), Kissimmee, FL, substantial damage. Probable cause: The student pilot's inadequate preflight inspection of the fuel system, which resulted in a total loss of engine power due to fuel contamination.
