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) On August 20, 2002, a Beech bonanza, N6025T was performing local instrument approaches at Champaign willard airport (cmi). After a normal preflight and takeoff, the gear retraction was normal. The first approach flown was the vor-dme 22R. On the approach the gear was lowered and raised normally, with no indications of any problems. The next approach was the ILS 32L, with a landing at the conclusion of the approach. The gear extended normally, and the landing was normal, with no abnormalities noticed. The gear retraction following the landing was normal. The next approach was the LOC bc 14R. Passing the final approach fix inbound, the gear was lowered, and three green lights were observed. At the conclusion of the approach, a normal landing was made. No abnormalities were noticed during the landing. Approximately 1000 ft. down the runway, the nose of the aircraft started to go down, and the prop struck the runway. Almost immediately after that, the right main gear also collapsed. Once the yaw started, the left main also partially collapsed.
