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) Gear collapsed while the pilot was performing an unplanned landing due to loss of electrical power which prevented the indication of the gear being down and locked. Proper procedure was not fully followed, abrupt yawing of the aircraft was not done, only figure s turns in accordance with the pilot. Waiting on outcome of some maintenance inspections, will amend report if necessary.
