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.
- Filled from the NTSB case API where the bulk record had no value: damage. Values present in the bulk record are kept.
- The date is the local date, which is the same as the UTC date the NTSB stores.
- API snapshot SHA-256: 7dc37e0737323c04b43c6417b1fcf3db69e9958108bb3247451e3f0c9c2956f7; retrieved 2026-09-16T05:10:51.880Z.
- Corrected after a review of the NTSB narrative, which states these values explicitly: destination. Destination label misspells Medellin; narrative says the airplane was operating from Tolu to Medellin, Colombia.
