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 CFI in the rear seat failed to take control in a timely manner consequently the aircraft exited the runway midfield into an area of grass and sand. The right main landing gear partialy seperated from the aircraft and the propeller contacted the ground resulting in minor damage to the aircraft and propeller.
