## ADs that may apply (OpenAirDocs)

Matched to this model by model name and maker. Each AD's applicability may narrow it by serial number, part number or equipment.

None matched.

## Registered aircraft (1)

- [N940AK](https://openairdocs.org/aircraft/N940AK): [P40 Kittyhawk LLC](https://openairdocs.org/faa-owner/P40%20KITTYHAWK%20LLC), [Beaverton, OR](https://openairdocs.org/faa-place/OR/Beaverton), built 1941, S/N 15321

## 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 BFO95LA052](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/BFO95LA052), May 11, 1995: Curtiss-Wright P-40E (N940AK), Phelps, NY, substantial damage. Probable cause: Loss of engine power for undetermined reasons. A factor related to the accident was the lack of suitable terrain for the forced landing.

## FAA accident and incident reports (2)

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.
