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 GAA19CA350](https://openairdocs.org/ntsb/GAA19CA350), Jun 7, 2019: Piper PA28 (N7227F), Nowdoinham, ME, substantial damage. Probable cause: The flight instructor's delayed decision to abort the takeoff from a wet, grass runway with insufficient runway remaining, which resulted in a runway overrun and the airplane going down an embankment.
