## NTSB investigations (2)

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 GAA25WA082](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/GAA25WA082), Feb 3, 2025: Piper PA-34-220T (N666NN), Braunschweig, Germany, destroyed, 1 fatal
