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.

When they arrived at the spot the owner made a wide turn which made the aircraft go off the paved section of the ramp off in the though dry dirt to swing around to park the aircraft. The dirt was not solid and the nose gear sank in the dirt causeing the prop to repeatly contact the dirt and water puddle.
