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) Pilot was landing on runway one at Glendale muni, Arizona. He allowed the aircraft to decelerate to a reduced speed prior to initiating brake application. Upon applying the brakes the right brake pedal had no resistance. The left brake was functioning normally. The aircraft veered off to the left and struck two runway edge lights. Using differential power and the left brake, the pilot taxied to the ramp, shut down and waited for a tow to parking. This incident closed.
