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) On June 12, 2006 at approximately 1930Z a Cessna CE-210 lost power during attempted go-around and subsequently struck a powerline at the end of the 2600 ft turf strip near Lawton, OK. The private pilot and sole occupant were not injured. Lawton regional airport was reporting winds gusting to 32 knots from the east at the time of the accident. The pilot stated that he elected to make a go around and moved the throttle briskly forward. He stated that the engine "coughed then stopped." At this point, according to the pilot, he did not have time for a restart. Post accident inspection of the actual fuel condition at the time of the accident could not be determined due to the aircraft having been moved and fuel drained. The pilot stated that because the airplane was leaking fuel he drained the tanks. He claimed to have drained 2 gallons out of the left wing tank and 12 gallons out of the right wing tank. Only one propeller blade was bent at a 35 degree angle. The pilot had an endorsement for high performance and had received instruction in this aircraft but could not produce evidence of a complex endorsement.
