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.

The passenger complaint indicated that the flight attendant's hair was not clean. The flight attendant was removed from the lse-msp leg by the company and deadheaded to msp. She was drug/alcohol tested upon her arrival in msp by the company and the results were negative. The flight attendant had been removed from her further trips pending receipt of the test results.
