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) At approximately 1235 local on June 2, 2002, student pilot walter lundwall, in a Cessna 152 (N25419), landed without engine power at Charlottesville (cho) airport on runway 21.

Walter lundwall was on a solo cross country of 187 NM and was endorsed by his flight instructor based on a weather forecast that stated that strong gusty winds would not arrive at cho until after 4 p.m. the student checked the fuel prior to departure and stated that he had 23.5 gallons; the aircraft holds 26 gallons with 24.5 usable. As the student arrived at cho the winds were from 310 at 10 gusting to 22. He attempted a landing on runway 21, however, elected to go around due to the crosswind. During the base leg of the second attempt the engine sputtered and apparently quit on final.
