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) During taxi for takeoff the pilot applied the brakes, and the aircraft veered to right. The wind got under the right wing, lifting it up and the aircraft rolled up onto the right main and the nose gears. The prop and the left wing contacted the ground.
