## 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 LAX97LA178](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/LAX97LA178), May 12, 1997: Robinson R-22 (N83795), Santa Margarita, CA, substantial damage. Probable cause: The failure of the pilot to maintain adequate rotor rpm during a low pass maneuvering flight resulting in loss of control. High density altitude was a factor in the accident.
