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 aircraft was on a flight from flying cloud airport, minneapolis, MN (fcm), to Jefferson City memorial airport, Jefferson City, MO (jef). Upon landing at jef on rwy 30, the pilot stated that both thrust reversers were commanded to deploy. He noted that the cockpit annunciations indicated the left engine thrust reverser had deployed, while the right engine thrust reverser had not. The aircraft veered to the left, at which point the left main landing gear hit a ridge of snow and slush. The aircraft departed the runway surface, stopping in the grass approximately 3200 feet from the landing threshold of rwy 30.
