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) While on final approach to runway 27 at Newark-Heath Airport (vta) and about 10 to 20 feet in the air, the student pilot experienced a gust of wind. The left wing dipped and the student added power and leveled the wings. The aircraft landed on the main gear and bounced into the air. The aircraft then contacted the runway on its nose wheel. At about the time the main gear contacted the runway the nose gear collapsed. The aircraft came to rest on the runway.
