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.

Aircraft contacted a runway light, re-entered the runway, and came to a stop. The aircraft then taxied off the runway without further incident. Minor damage resulted to the propeller and the right main landing gear fairing. There were no injuries to the lone occupant.
