FAA incident report · Bbavia 7GCBC · King City, AK · February 12, 1980
From the FAA’s Accident/Incident Data System (AIDS), through its Aviation Safety Information Portal, as reported. The NTSB investigates accidents separately, and its record of an accident is the fuller one. The aircraft is matched to the registry by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry’s history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model.
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.

DURING TAKEOFF RIGHT SKI AND AXLE ATTACH BOLTS AND NUTS SHEARED OFF, PROBABLY DUE TO PREVIOUS LOADS ON GEAR.
