NTSB investigations: Continental E225 series

5 cases on aircraft whose registry engine model is Continental E225 series, where the probable cause includes Airspeed. Aircraft are matched to the registry by N-number and event date, checked against the reported serial number, make and model, so older matches can be wrong.
