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) Pilot was concluding an IFR flight from hhr (hawthorne) to myf (Montgomery field). Following ILS approach to runway 28R, pilot touched down and employed his usual procedure of holding the nose wheel off the ground as long as possible, to facilitate deceleration and minimize use of brakes. Upon lowering nose on rollout, pilot realized he was close to end of runway. Maximum braking failed to stop aircraft before end of runway, resulting in overrun, with damage to nose wheel and tire. Pilot had noted length of runway as 4500 ft., but failed to note displaced threshold, effectively leaving 2638 feet usable lenght utilizing the glide slope.

As the FAA filed it

(-23) PILOT WAS CONCLUDING AN IFR FLIGHT FROM HHR (HAWTHORNE) TO MYF (MONTGOMERY FIELD). FOLLOWING ILS APPROACH TO RUNWAY 28R, PILOT TOUCHED DOWN AND EMPLOYED HIS USUAL PROCEDURE OF HOLDING THE NOSE WHEEL OFF THE GROUND AS LONG AS POSSIBLE, TO FACILITATE DECELERATION AND MINIMIZE USE OF BRAKES. UPON LOWERING NOSE ON ROLLOUT, PILOT REALIZED HE WAS CLOSE TO END OF RUNWAY. MAXIMUM BRAKING FAILED TO STOP AIRCRAFT BEFORE END OF RUNWAY, RESULTING IN OVERRUN, WITH DAMAGE TO NOSE WHEEL AND TIRE. PILOT HAD NOTED LENGTH OF RUNWAY AS 4500 FT., BUT FAILED TO NOTE DISPLACED THRESHOLD, EFFECTIVELY LEAVING 2638 FEET USABLE LENGHT UTILIZING THE GLIDE SLOPE.
