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) During ILS approach to rwy 31R at dal, a warning light for ice accumulation on the horizontal stabilizer illuminated. The aircraft was landed at 120K in lieu of 108K at approx. 1500 ft. beyond the start of the 7500 ft runway. The aircraft was not equipped with thrust reversers. Minimum braking was not announced by ATC or ATIS per the crew. An inspector from this office observed slush over frozen surface of rwy 31R, except where rwy 36/18 crosses. Anti-skid appears to have functioned only near this intersection. It appeared that the tracks did not penetrate to rwy surface at any other location.
