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: instructional flight making a single engine ILS to full stop when a go-around was ordered. The instructor waited too long to initiate recovery. The aircraft touched down left of runway, took off and landed at will rogers airport without incident. The left main tire was damaged and the runway light on the west side of runway 17L was damaged. There were no injuries. The airman, acting as a flight instructor, neglected to initiate proper corrective action before the aircraft struck runway light. The instructor let the student go too FAR before correcting.
