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 pilot stated that while on approach to runway 11 (olf), he did not receive a green light for his landing gear. An attempt was made to use the emergency hand pump but the pilot stated it felt as if there was a lot of pressure and was unable to pump the handle. He observed the aircraft's shadow on the ground and it appeared that the nose gear was down. On landing roll out, the nose gear collapsed damaging the prop and the nose gear doors.
