## 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)

- [N13700](https://openairdocs.org/aircraft/N13700): [Williams David R Jr](https://openairdocs.org/faa-owner/WILLIAMS%20DAVID%20R%20JR), [Bellevue, WA](https://openairdocs.org/faa-place/WA/Bellevue), built 1933, S/N 40

## 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 LAX95LA291](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/LAX95LA291), Aug 12, 1995: Kinner Sportster K (N100AA), Los Banos, CA, substantial damage. Probable cause: the pilot's failure to maintain minimum control airspeed resulting in a stall, and not maintaining proper altitude on final approach. Contributing to the accident was the unfavorable wind condition.

## FAA accident and incident reports (2)

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.
