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 airman will not be available for interview until the week of 24 oct, 2011.11/8/2011 N907CF was being piloted by a student in the front seat and a flight instructor in the back seat. The aircraft landed from a normal stabilized approach and was on the roll out when the student applied excessive braking causing the aircraft to nose over onto its back causing minor damage to the aircraft. The flight instructor who was the PIC stated he did not have enough time to correct the excessive braking by the student. The aircraft was on tundra tires and was fitted with booster brakes.
