## Other investigations on N8312G (1)

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 CEN09CA552](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/CEN09CA552), Aug 29, 2009: Cessna 150F (N8312G), Abilene, KS, substantial damage. Probable cause: The pilot's inadequate crosswind landing technique, resulting in an excessive side load on the left landing gear that led to an overload failure of its axle.
