## 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 LAX96LA064](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/LAX96LA064), Dec 5, 1995: Emroth Emair MA-1B (N88899), Pahala, HI, substantial damage. Probable cause: the failure of the pilot to adequately compensate for wind conditions, and to maintain directional control of the aircraft during the landing.
