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 Cessna-152 (N69122) was cleared for takeoff and failed to judge proper clearance while taxiing around the Cessna-172 (N220EP). The right wing tip of the Cessna-152 collided with the rudder of the Cessna-172 causing minor damage to the rudder. On 05-02-01 the pilot of the Cessna 152 was counseled by the FAA iic and subsequently required to receive remedial training for taxiing around other aircraft. The remedial training was successfully completed with a CFI on board on 05-02-01. A copy is attached in this file. The pilot was further advised to have his corrective lenses checked for depth perception.
