## 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)

- [N91323](https://openairdocs.org/aircraft/N91323): [Mckibben Mark A](https://openairdocs.org/faa-owner/MCKIBBEN%20MARK%20A), [Owings, MD](https://openairdocs.org/faa-place/MD/Owings), S/N 001

## 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 ATL97LA003](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ATL97LA003), Oct 13, 1996: Harper W-8 Tailwind (N91323), Macclenny, FL, substantial damage. Probable cause: the pilot's inadequate preflight inspection, which resulted in loss of engine power due to fuel contamination.

## 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.
