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) Aircraft landing was long (last 1000') on a wet 3148' asphalt poorly maintained runway. Aircraft, with full brakes applied continued off the end of runway 8, traveled an additional 50' down a 30 degree embankment where the nose gear entered a hole and was broken off. Engine had sudden stoppage when the propeller struck the ground after the gear collapsed. Aircraft damage included the shearing off of the nose gear, substantial damage to the lower engine firewall, tunnel, and lower engine cowling. A contributing factor was the poor condition of the runway.
