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.
While being cleared to land on runway 25R the tower gave the pilot the wind direction of wind 170 at 12 gusting to 20. The pilot approached the runway correcting for the crosswind and then the airspeed dropped and the plane touched down hard and bounced several times striking both propellers and flattening the nose tire.
