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 in command was occupying the right seat and giving multiengine dual instruction. The pilot in the left seat was manipulating the controls and failed to lower the landing gear, the pilot in command (right seat pilot) failed to observe the landing gear position and subsequently allowed the pilot flying to land the aircraft with the landing gear retracted. The pilot in command does not hold a multiengine flight instructor certificate, his instructor has a single engine rating only.
