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.

Aircraft is an experimental amateur built in phase one testing. The aircraft departed cno, stayed in the pattern and upon landing on 26L developed a vibration in the right main landing gear. The right main landing gear collapsed causing the right wingtip to contact the ground creating a hard right turn placing a side load that collapsed the left main landing gear. Minor aircraft damage, no fire, no fatalities or injuries.
