NTSB investigations: Lycoming HIO-360 series
10 cases on aircraft whose registry engine model is Lycoming HIO-360 series, where the defining event was Ground resonance. Aircraft are matched to the registry by N-number and event date, checked against the reported serial number, make and model, so older matches can be wrong.
