## NTSB investigations (3)

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 DCA18IA264](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/DCA18IA264), Aug 10, 2018: Lindstrand 105A (N1410C), Driggs, ID, incident, no damage. Probable cause: the drone pilot's decision to fly without pre-coordination, and without the requisite skills and knowledge, to maneuver the drone in close proximity to another aircraft.
- [NTSB ERA18LA116](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ERA18LA116), Mar 24, 2018: Lindstrand Balloons 105A (N1517H), Wesley Chapel, FL, substantial damage. Probable cause: The pilot's failure to maintain adequate clearance from powerlines during landing approach, which resulted in an inflight collision with the powerlines.
- [NTSB DFW06CA161](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/DFW06CA161), Jun 15, 2006: Lindstrand Balloons 105A (N1410C), Frisco, TX, substantial damage. Probable cause: The pilot's failure to maintain the proper glidepath while landing. Contributing factors were the prevailing high winds and the downdraft encountered on final approach.
