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.
Pilot stated that after touchdown he noticed it was hard to maintain centerline and that the aircraft then veered off the the left side. After hitting the dirt the aircraft nosed over on the propeller and left wing tip. Inspection found that the right main gear had failed at the gear strut.
