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 stated that he disconnected the autopilot as called for in the checklist when he was landing at Tucson. He further stated that he discovered the yaw damper had not disconnected prior to landing when he was turning off the runway causing the aircraft to run over a taxiway light due to heavy steering action. Further investigation of the autopilot is continuing.
