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)The aircraft first contacted runway 17 at Shawnee Municipal Airport (snl) about 2000 feet from the runway numbers as evident by the scrape marks on the pavement, which started to the left of the center line and continued for approximately 600 feet, to the point were the aircraft stopped. The left side of the aircraft was off the runway. There were four prop strike marks on the pavement about 39 feet from the first scrape mark. There was no evidence of tire or rubber marks before the scrape marks, or on either side of the scrape marks. The pilot stated that, when the aircraft came to a stop, he sat there for a moment to figure out what happened, and found the gear handle inthe gear up position. The pitot tube on the left wing is bent. The nose gear doors are ground thin from contact with runway. Both exhaust outlets are ground away at 45 degree angles. Both prop blades are curled aft and loose in hub. The belly skin damage starts at the fire wall and extends aft for about 8 feet. The assist step forward inboard is half worn away.
