## 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 CEN15LA428](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN15LA428), Sep 28, 2015: Sukhoi SU-26 (N596TJ), Slidell, TX, destroyed. Probable cause: The pilot's attempt to recover from an aerobatic maneuver at too low of an altitude to make a safe recovery.
- [NTSB LAX05LA115](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/LAX05LA115), Mar 14, 2005: Sukhoi SU-26 (N226PS), Tucson, AZ, substantial damage. Probable cause: the pilot's inadequate in-flight planning and fuel consumption calculations, which resulted in fuel exhaustion.
- [NTSB DEN00FA182](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/DEN00FA182), Sep 30, 2000: Sukhoi SU-26MX (N26KP), Telluride, CO, destroyed, 1 fatal. Probable cause: the pilot's failure to maintain aircraft control while maneuvering, and the subsequent inadvertent stall/spin to the ground. A contributing factor was the high density altitude weather condition.
