## 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 DCA23LA290](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/DCA23LA290), May 15, 2023: General Atomics MQ-9 Block 1 (N31EJ), Elgin, AZ, destroyed. Probable cause: The pilot’s loss of situational awareness, resulting in the UAS’s controlled flight into terrain.
