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) Hard landing after a wind gust caused aircraft to balloon during flare. The aircraft was crabbed causing nose wheel to contact runway at a sharp angle. This caused the nose wheel fork to fail allowing the nose wheel to break off.
