## NTSB investigations (53, newest 50)

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 WPR14FA324](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/WPR14FA324), Aug 1, 2014: S.N.I.A.S. AS350B (N3597T), Tahoma, CA, substantial damage. Probable cause: The pilot's loss of helicopter control due to settling with power while maneuvering for takeoff.
- [NTSB LAX06LA098](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/LAX06LA098), Jan 29, 2006: Eurocopter AS350D (N90Q), Kahului, HI, substantial damage. Probable cause: A total loss of engine power due to the internal effects on the bearings consistent with an operating event of insufficient oil supply. Contributing to the accident was the pilot’s improper flare…
- [NTSB ATL05FA038](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ATL05FA038), Jan 6, 2005: Aerospatiale AS350-D (N350RM), Falkner, MS, destroyed, 1 fatal. Probable cause: The pilot's improper decision to attempt VFR flight into known instrument flight conditions and failure to maintain altitude clearance resulted in an in-flight collision with trees and the ground.
- [NTSB ATL00FA069](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/ATL00FA069), Jul 24, 2000: Eurocopter AS350B (N911AM), Sumner, GA, destroyed, 3 fatal. Probable cause: The pilot experienced spatial disorientation, which resulted in a loss of control of the helicopter. Contributing factors was the dark night.
- [NTSB LAX00FA061](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/LAX00FA061), Dec 28, 1999: Aerospatiale AS-350D (N3593S), Avalon, CA, destroyed. Probable cause: A loose pneumatic fitting caused the engine to go to flight idle power at a low altitude, which resulted in a forced landing in hilly terrain.
- [NTSB LAX97FA149](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/LAX97FA149), Apr 7, 1997: Aerospatiale AS350D (N317LT), Los Angeles, CA, substantial damage. Probable cause: the pilot's failure to ensure that the collective lock was properly seated before deplaning.
- [NTSB NYC95LA099](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/NYC95LA099), May 3, 1995: Eurocopter AS350D (N900PH), Sea Bright, NJ, substantial damage. Probable cause: Failure of the position 19 engine bearing, which resulted in shifting of the accessory gear drive, disengagement of the fuel pump, fuel starvation, and loss of engine power.
- [NTSB LAX95LA019](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/LAX95LA019), Oct 24, 1994: Eurocopter AS-350D (N5771L), Kaupo, HI, substantial damage.
