## Other investigations on N1854Z (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 LAX99LA297](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/LAX99LA297), Sep 5, 1999: Cessna 205 (N1854Z), Gualala, CA, substantial damage. Probable cause: The pilot's failure to attain a proper touchdown point due to his misjudgment of the aircraft's speed, altitude, and distance to the runway. The pilot's failure to initiate a go-around is also causal.
