Source notes (5)
- Unreviewed is an editorial label, not an investigation status. API-sourced is not report-checked or human-reviewed. Explicit event totals are used without summing aircraft injury tables; onboard allocation is withheld. Unknown values remain unknown. The operation category is mapped from the NTSB-reported FAR part and has not been reviewed.
- No bulk values were replaced by the NTSB case API.
- The date is the local date, which is the same as the UTC date the NTSB stores.
- API snapshot SHA-256: 6ac0e2afcf88a13f23224683087fad342bddf0649bf0d30e34b22db33df683e9; retrieved 2026-09-14T17:26:35.741Z.
- Corrected after a review of the NTSB narrative, which states these values explicitly: departure. The narrative states the airplane impacted the ground shortly after takeoff from Aeroporto di Marina di Campo (LIRJ); LIRJ is Marina di Campo on Elba, and 'Erba' is a misspelling of the island, not the airport's town.
