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 experimental aircraft was on approach to rwy 27 at hyx and lost engine power. The pilot landed the aircraft about 1/2 mile short of the rwy in a bean field. No injury to the sole occupant, the pilot/owner. The left main gear leg bent backward and the aircraft tipped down on its nose. Minor damage only to the left gear leg.
