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.
Pilots of N227GA were in preflight checks after engine start and thought that they set the parking brakes. Unfortunately they had not and the aircraft slowely rolled forward across the ramp and struck a pallet of foam with the right propeller.
