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) I departed runway 14 with a student pilot for softfield takeoff practice. The student pitched up too high and did not compensate for left turning tendencies with application of right rudder. The plane lifted off the runway too early and yawed to the left. I took the controls as the plane went off the left side off the runway while still airborne. With full power the airplane showed very poor climb performance and struck a runway light on the left side of runway 14 with its right main gear. We then climbed out and returned for landing.
