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.

What happened

The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.

While N29282 was holding in position on rw 16 the tower controller stated "cherokee N29282 cleared to the neil armstrong airport via radar vectors, findley, direct, maintain 4000". The pilot read back the clearance and then commenced to takeoff. When N29282 was airborne the tower controller asked the pilot of N29282 if he was cleared for takeoff. The pilot responded "yes, sir, I believe I was." The tower controller stated, "I don't think you were." Failure to comply with ATC clearance.
