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) The pilot flying the Mooney-20-R said she "touched down... At about 100 KTS". The tower controller said the Mooney was fast during a landing to the (6,000' x 100') runway 17R and the pilot told the tower controller that she bounced and lost control of the aircraft. The Mooney exited the right side of the runway and ended up in 18 inch deep water and mud 20 feet outside the runway landing lights. Minor damage to the aircraft and no reported injuries to the pilot who was the sole occupant.
