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 stated that both landing gear retracted while the aircraft was completing its landing roll out. The aircraft came to rest on the ground with both landing gear in the gear wells. Damage was limited to the propeller blades and one antenna on the bottom of the aircraft. There was grass on the landing gear and on the bottom of the engine cowling but no skid marks were evident.
