## Other investigations on N9833M (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 GAA19CA305](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/GAA19CA305), May 31, 2019: Maule M4 (N9833M), Fairbanks, AK, substantial damage. Probable cause: The pilot's failure to maintain the runway centerline during landing, which resulted in the airplane landing with the left wheel off the runway, an impact with trees, and a nose-over.
