## Registered aircraft (1)

- [N751EW](https://openairdocs.org/aircraft/N751EW): [Kimbrell Stanley E](https://openairdocs.org/faa-owner/KIMBRELL%20STANLEY%20E), [Pulaski, TN](https://openairdocs.org/faa-place/TN/Pulaski), built 2006, S/N 1001

## 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.
