THE AIRCRAFT STRUCK A TREE DURING THE APPROACH AND CAME TO REST APPROXIMATELY 50 FEET FROM THE OBSTRUCTION.

## 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.
