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) Public use incident. The PIC (fish & wildlife service) was taking an annual flight checkride with an oas flight check pilot. The PIC had performed several landings in the land configuration in this CE-206 amphibious aircraft. After every landing the PIC placed the gear in the up (water) position. The PIC was instructed to perform a "no flap" landing at the airport. The PIC did not review the before landing checklist, did not observe the "blue" gear-up light for water landing, and landed the aircraft skidding to a stop. The investigation found the "gear horn" was disabled during this traing/checking flight.privacy data omitted
