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 stated that he was on final approach and bounced on the runway. When the airplane came off the runway he added power and applied corrective action to the controls. The airplane again hit the runway, but the nose wheel and the left wing tip were in contact with the ground. The pilot was unable to recover the landing and the aircraft slid off the runway about half way down the runway.
