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.

(-5) While on approach to John Wayne /Orange county airport, in stormy weather, the crew noticed a "trailing edge" light came on at flaps 5 degrees. Due to the weather and workload, the captain elected to fly the aircraft and handle communications while the first officer dealt with the flap problem. The f/o resolved the problem and the aircraft landed with normal flaps on a wet runway. During landing rollout a main gear tire blew out.
