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 doing solo touch & go's during an aircraft check out. On the last approach pilot stated that he was high and long and he still attempted to land. On rollout he went to the beta position and lost control of the aircraft. He exited the runway to the left and came to rest inverted in shallow water.
