Are the accident times local or UTC?

They seem to mention the local time zone explicitly (e.g.
http://www.ntsb.gov/NTSB/brief.asp?ev_id=20060131X00141&key=1).

That's the NTSB, not the FAA.

Oops, sorry.

Let's see, the Lantana crash on 1/24/2006 appears on both sites. The FAA
cites a time of 1545; the NTSB says "about 1100" EST. So it looks like UTC.

Yep.

Nice detective work.
