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) Pilot states that after taking on 22.3 gallons of fuel at mlj, attempted take off and aircraft seemed to be heavy to gain enough altitude to climb above the trees off the end of the runway. It seems as if the density altitude may have been a factor.
