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 stated as he landed on 34R at Paine field, he noted that as the aircraft was slowing, the nose gear began to settle without warning. Later investigation found the gear operation to be normal. The pilot stated he must have selected the gear handle to the "up" position when he intended to retract the flaps.
