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 primary technical factor indicated a loss of aircraft control compounded by a lack of engine response during an attempted go/around maneuver. An emergency landing was performed with the aircraft touching down off the active runway onto the grass. Other factors included strong crosswind and gusty conditions. Runway conditions were dry during the time of the incident.
