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) Aircraft was landing on runway 20 at vcb. After touchdown I observed the right main tire begin to flop around and come off of the wheel. The aircraft slowly began to move to the right side of the runway until the aircaft was in the dirt, off of the runway. After approximately 100 yards the aircraft tail wheel rose up 5-10 feet off of the ground and swung around in a clockwise direction 90 degrees. The wing tips and propellers did not contact the ground. The sole pilot and six pax were not injured. The aircraft did not sustain any visible damage except for the right main tire. The aircraft ended up 50 feet, and 90 degrees from the runway.
