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 4/17/07, private pilot privacy data omitted was landing N797N at Payson (pan) airport. Upon landing the nosewheel broke off and the wooden propeller struck the runway, breaking the prop. Airworthiness inspector privacy data omitted (sdl FSDO) inspected N797N, and it was determined there are issues with the nosewheel design. I am closing this incident with no action for the pilot involved.
