## 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 CEN24LA110](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN24LA110), Feb 1, 2024: Schempp Hirth Discus 2CT (N27GG), Waller, TX, minor damage. Probable cause: The failure of both pilots to see and avoid one another while maneuvering, which resulted in a mid-air collision.
