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: during landing roll-out at moraine (I73), pilot noticed rt. Wing lowering more than normal. Pilot initiated a go-around and proceeded with emergency gear extension, but could only get nose and lt. main gear safe lites. Pilot stated that he had three gear safe lites on first landing. Pilot elected to proceed to Dayton international (day) where he would have emergency equipment available. On roll-out after landing, rt. Main gear collapsed and aircraft slid off runway. Minor damage to aircraft and no injury to pilots or passengers. P/n NAS-464P4-26 (bolt) failed that attaches the push-pull rod to the bellcrank. It didn't allow the over-center assembly to lock the rt. Main gear in the down position. This incident considered closed with submission of m & d report.
