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.

During the landing rollout upon application of the brakes the anit-skid system failed locking the brakes. The aircraft skidded to a stop on the runway causing both main tires to deflate. The NTSB is actively investigating the brake control unit due to similar incidents with this aircraft model.
