## 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 ATL96LA016](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ATL96LA016), Dec 1, 1995: Bellanca 8KCAB (N53870), Alexander City, AL, substantial damage. Probable cause: The leaking fuel injector, which created a rich mixture, and caused the aircraft engine to lose power.

## FAA accident and incident reports (3)

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model.
