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 11/21/02 pilot did a gear up landing at the Rochester international airport. Pilot stated he had lowered the gear and started thinking about the recent accident the week before in the same location so he raised the gear just in case he had some engine trouble and planned on lowering them just prior to landing but got behind and landed too quickly. The pilot forgot to pout the gear back down. Aircraft damaged the prop (all three tips are bent). The fuselage underside is damaged due to landing gear up. No other damage was notified.
