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 pilot-in-command of N93ML obtained weather and wind from AWOS. Wind reported 360 at 11 knots. On crosswind the PIC received airport advisory with wind 360 at 4 knots and the wind sock confirmed this. Jet traffic landed while N93ML was turning right base for runway 35. The aircraft landed at 65 miles per hour without event. On the rollout the aircraft experienced a wind shift that pushed to the left. The PIC responded with right rudder and the wind continued to push tail of the aircraft. Rudder, brake and holding the yolk back was applied but the aircraft slid off the runway. The aircraft was approximately 20 miles per hour at this time.
