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.
After landing at San Francisco International Airport, runway 28R, AF084 crossed runway 28L enroute to the assigned gate. Multiple radio tranmissions and confusing ATC instructions contributed to the runway crossing without a proper clearance. No other aircraft were affected, and no aciton is recommended.
