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.

(-23) While attempting to land on runway 31 with a 50 degree crosswind the pilot lost control of the aircraft, the aircraft weather vaned into the wind and departed the runway. The right main landing gear hit a runway location sign, which caused the right main gear to separate from the fuselage. The propeller, left main gear and right wing received minor damage due to ground impact forces.
