## 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 CEN11LA568](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN11LA568), Aug 16, 2011: Quad City Challenger (N979JP), Granbury, TX, substantial damage. Probable cause: The leak in the plastic connectors in the fuel lines, which resulted in decreased engine power during the initial climb.
