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) After takeoff and short duration of flight (15-20 minutes) pilot failed to put the landing gear in the down lock position. Due to circumstances, (age, debilitating factors, etc.) Mr. Davis has voluntarily surrendered his pilot's certificate for cancellation with the intention of not ever re-applying.
