The cause is documented in the FAA aircraft records file, which the full report obtains. [1]

N968DH was previously assigned to 1 other aircraft: Hoover Dale W CGS HAWK (serial H113C, cancelled February 7, 1995). Histories keyed to the tail number alone can mix aircraft up; this check keys on the serial number. [2]
