## 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 MKC89LA131](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/MKC89LA131), Jun 11, 1989: Glaser-Dirks DG-101 (N83GB), Stanton, MN, substantial damage. Probable cause: FAILURE OF THE PILOT TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE GLIDER. CONTRIBUTING FACTORS WERE: IMPROPER USE OF FLIGHT CONTROLS BY THE PILOT AND HIS LACK OF TOTAL EXPERIENCE IN THE TYPE OF GLIDER.

## 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.
