## The NTSB's investigation of this event (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 LAX94LA330](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/LAX94LA330), Aug 20, 1994: Beech 95-B55 (N88FC), Page, AZ, destroyed.
