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)On 7-06-00, gulfsream 2, GA-1159, N666JT, serial number G2-SN162, departed Syracuse Hancock International Airport on runway 10. After takeoff the crew tried to put the gear handle in the up position but it would not move. The flight crew reported the problem to the Syracuse control tower. They did a fly by to check that the gear was still down. The crash fire rescue personnel responded and the aircraft landed on runway 10 without incident. The aircraft was operated by new world jet corp., N9WA. The aircraft had 2 flight crew and 2 passengers. On 07-10-00, called privacy data omitted, a mechanic for N666JT. He informed me that the aircraft was ferried to tereboro, NJ, where it was put on jacks and the gear swung. No problems were found but he said they were going to continue to investigate. He said he will send a log book page or work order when the aircraft is returned to service. On 07-12-00, received a fax of a work order from jet aviation stating they could not duplicate the problem and the customer requested no further action.
