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.

The aircraft was part of a formation flight with three other aircraft, conducting a low pass with the gear down at 100 feet AGL to runway 18. When the gear was retracted and the throttle was increased for the climbout, the engine lost power. The pilot executed a forced landing on the overrun area just south of runway 18.
