Model codes come from the FAA registry's reference file. ADs are matched to them by model name and maker.

## 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)

- [N515DL](https://openairdocs.org/aircraft/N515DL): [Davlor Aircraft Leasing LLC](https://openairdocs.org/faa-owner/DAVLOR%20AIRCRAFT%20LEASING%20LLC), [Bellefontaine, OH](https://openairdocs.org/faa-place/OH/Bellefontaine), built 2015, S/N EVO-0060

## 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 CEN21FA238](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN21FA238), May 28, 2021: Lancair Evolution (N515DL), McDermott, OH, destroyed, 2 fatal. Probable cause: The pilot’s failure to recognize and avoid airframe icing conditions, which resulted in a loss of airplane performance and a subsequent loss of control and in-flight break-up.

## FAA accident and incident reports (1)

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.
