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) As a solo student pilot, the pilot privacy data omitted was practicing touch and go landings at the Madill, OK airport on runway 36. After touching down two-thirds of the way down the runway he departed the paved area in the last 240 feet and continued 15 to 18 yards left (west) of the runway edge, driving the nose gear up against a shallow drainage ditch, causing it to collapse, followed by a prop strike.
