## 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 CEN09CA159](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN09CA159), Jan 31, 2009: Cameron Balloons US V-90 (N2097H), La Junta, CO, minor damage. Probable cause: The pilot's failure to maintain a safe rate of descent during landing. Contributing to the accident was the strong surface winds.
- [NTSB FTW00LA152](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/FTW00LA152), May 22, 2000: Cameron V-90 (N6012C), Frisco, TX, no damage. Probable cause: The pilot's inadequate passenger briefing for a high wind landing. A factor was the wind.
