## NTSB investigations (3)

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 ERA20CA184](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ERA20CA184), May 14, 2020: Bell OH-58C (N183MP), Livingston, NY, substantial damage. Probable cause: The pilot's failure to maintain obstacle clearance while maneuvering at low altitude at night, which resulted in the helicopter striking a tree.
- [NTSB CEN15LA002](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN15LA002), Oct 2, 2014: Bell 206B (N49746), Woodsboro, TX, substantial damage. Probable cause: The pilot’s failure to recognize and correct for flight conditions conducive to a loss of tail rotor effectiveness, which resulted in a rapid, uncommanded right yaw and subsequent hard landing.
