## 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 FTW01LA207](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/FTW01LA207), Sep 19, 2001: Ayres S2R-T11 (N40173), Spur, TX, substantial damage. Probable cause: the loss of engine power while in cruise flight for undetermined reasons. A contributing factor was the lack of suitable terrain for the forced landing.
