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.

With the new tailwheel, the vlof changed from 65MPH to 75MPH. Pilot stated aircraft remained on ground too long during takeoff roll. Pilot aborted takeoff at 70MPH. He thought aircraft should have been airborne at 65MPH. During abort aircraft drifted to right side of runway. Rudder inputs were ineffective below 25MPH. Pilot intentionally groundlooped aircraft but in so doing departed runway. Aircraft was not damaged.
