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.

(-23) The pilot-in-command instructed his student to land downwind at an undocumented strip. The aircraft was going too fast for the remaining runway after landing and went off and past the end of the runway. Substantial damage was sustained to right main gear and prop struck ground.
