NTSB investigations: Continental 0-300 series
103 cases on aircraft whose registry engine model is Continental 0-300 series, where the first occurrence was “Loss of engine power(total) - nonmechanical”. 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.
