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.

The turn required a very high power setting. The resultant jet blast substantually damaged a parked CE-182. The damage was pointed out to the crew. The crew called the NTSB on April 15, 2009, after the owner (fbi) contacted the crew of N224FD.
