## 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.

- [NTSB ERA23LA026](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ERA23LA026), Oct 16, 2022: Kolb Firestar II (N4878P), West Alexandria, OH, substantial damage. Probable cause: The pilot’s failure to maintain airplane control after takeoff, resulting in an aerodynamic stall and collision with terrain.
- [NTSB ERA21LA075](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ERA21LA075), Dec 11, 2020: Kolb Firestar (N7094T), Durham, NC, substantial damage. Probable cause: A total loss of engine power due to fuel starvation as the result of a degraded fuel primer check valve.

## 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.

- [Accident 20201211017619A](https://openairdocs.org/incident/20201211017619A), Dec 11, 2020: Kolb FIRESTAR II (N7094T), Durham, NC, Destroyed. At approximately 1850Z N7094T was over falls lake at about 500 ft AGL when the engine began to loose power and the aircraft was unable to maintain altitude.…
