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) The pilot privacy data omitted was giving a SIC flt check to a new hire for air west, inc. they had done several take off and landings and this was to be the last one and it was to be a touch and go and return to falcon field (ffz). The SIC privacy data omitted stated that the checkairman, privacy data omitted was in a hurry and grabbed the controls (without proper exchange) as they started to rotate the pilot privacy data omitted raised the gear switch and the flap switch. The aircraft then settled back to the runway causing a gear up landing. The checkairman privacy data omitted was counseled and his checkairman authority was withdrawn.
