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 initiated take-off power and rotated at 96 KTS at 50 feet airspeed indicated 100 knots aircraft yawed left and airspeed decreased. Pilot feathered left engine and made a hard left turn and landed in grass adjacent to 12 r south of 22/12/intersection. Pilot returned to 12 r and struck a taxi light. Pilot returned to Hawker Beech. The chief inspector for Hawker Beechcraft (XA1R) informed me that they replaced all filters, checked all power setting, ran the aircraft, and could not find any reason for the loss of power on the engine.
