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.

The aircraft exited the right side of runway 35 left crossed over the parallel taxiway and impacted a shallow depression in the ground. The left main landing gear bracket fractured on impact and the aircraft impacted on the propeller and lower engine cowling.
