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) On take off roll, crew noted a lack of proper acceleration. The crew verified both engines were producing adequate power and the parking brake was released. At approximately 80 knots, the decision to abort the takeoff was made due to continued poor acceleration. After retarding the power levers, the aircraft veered to the left. Positive control of the aircraft was maintained at all times. Component failure.
