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 pilot failed to abort the take-off when it became apparent to him that the aircraft had not developed the proper ground speed needed for rotation. The pilot claimed he attempted pull back hard on the controls at the very last of the runway. The aircraft ran off the end of the runway and into a ditch.
