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) I learned of this incident on 6/5/2008 from a request to ferry the aircraft for maintenance. An inspection of the aircraft found that the right propeller was replaced and there was no other damage to the aircraft. During a telecon, the pilot stated that he contacted the runway with the right propeller on landing due to a wind gust at the airport. A witness to the incident stated that there were crosswinds at the time. Pilot also stated that his approach did not feel right and in retrospect, should have gone around. I recommend that the pilot be counselled on decision making and crosswind landing technique.
