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) 15 Miles out from tus, xa-vdg's flaps failed. Upon landing tus runway 29L, the reverse thrusters did not deploy. Aircraft stopped using brakes alone, which caused the brakes to overheat. Aircraft taxied to ramp, passengers deplaned, then left main landing gear caught fire. Minor damage, no injuries reported. The Bombardier project manager in Tucson, AZ provided some information: *the #2 brake (left-inboard) inspection, which was the brake with the reported fire, revealed that it was part number 600-85123-91. The additional brakes (#1, #3, and #4) were part number 600-85123-81. A review of the maintenance manual discloses that the two brakes are not to be combined on an airplane, due to the carbon properties on the -91 brake; under maximum loading conditions the -91 brake will apparently take all the load if -81 units are installed. *an electrical system troubleshoot revealed no real anomalies. The ramps on the trs were found worn and subsequently replaced. The throttle lock-out switch (on #2) was found to be intermediate. *there was no indication on the icas that there was any type of wing flap failure. The flaps were found to be out-of-rig, although when operated, the control surface did move up and down respective to the cockpit lever. Event occurred 9/12/07 1858 MST (9/13/07 0158 UTC). Unable to contact pilots. Total hrs in block 31 obtained from msat-a. other pilot info unknown.
