## Other investigations on N5999T (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 GAA18CA293](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/GAA18CA293), May 22, 2018: Cessna 150 (N5999T), Bemidgi, MN, substantial damage. Probable cause: The student pilot’s failure to maintain lateral control of the airplane during the landing roll, which resulted in a side load and subsequent failure of the left main landing gear extension casting.
