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.

Narrative: aircraft made a normal approach to runway 36 and landed without incident. Approximately 750 feet after touchdown, the aircraft veered left off the runway. Upon entering the tall grass next to the runway, the aircraft impacted a small ditch causing the nose gear to collapse and the prop to contact the ground. Brake lock-up on landing caused loss of control.
