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 forgot to lower the landing gear because of the distractions of the weather, the heat of the early afternoon and the "get home-itis" to work on his house which is under construction. There was no post fire and no property damage. Aircraft damage was minimal, mainly to the three antennas on the belly and to the propeller.
