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) Pilot took off with a 10 to 15 knot tail wind. He felt that the aircraft was not producing power so just after becoming airborne he aborted the takeoff and ran off the end of the runway into a marshy bog. The aircraft came to rest on its top. The pilot thinks that he may have had the propeller control in a position other then full increase.
