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.

Engine started to run rough and student turned for an actual emergency landing while attempting to get fuel to the engine. Approximately 20 feet above the runway the aircraft stalled, impacting the runway, sheering the main and nose gears and came to a stop on the grass to the left of the runway
