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) During touch and go wheel landing instruction minor prop strike was induced by too much forward elevator. This was done while attempting to teach student to "stick" wheel landings. Takeoff was continued and an uneventful full stop landing was accomplished. After an inspection of the prop the aircraft was grounded. Minor damage was found on the prop tips.
