## Other investigations on N5675X (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 GAA19CA271](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/GAA19CA271), May 17, 2019: Ayres S 2R (N5675X), Stuttgart, AR, substantial damage. Probable cause: The pilot's exceedance of the airplane's critical angle of attack while maneuvering during an agricultural application flight, which resulted in an aerodynamic stall.
