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.

No flight plan had been filed for the flight, from Lincoln Park to (N72) warwick, NY conducted under 14 CFR part 91. During the takeoff roll, the pilot felt the airplane was notaccelerating normally. The pilot "got it off the ground" by pulling back on the yoke, but still felt the airplane was not accelerating normally, so he raised the flaps. The airplane drifted off the left side of the runway and settled into the yak. The airplane then continued up an embankment, and came to rest partially on a road.
