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) This has been classed as an accident because of regulation and not just because of the type of damage to the a/c. while in cruise flight, approx. 5 inches of the prop tip separated from the propeller. This caused a severe vibration and an emergency landing was accomplished in a farm field. No other damage and no person was injured.
