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.

Aircraft landed with the gear not in the down position. Pilot initially stated that the gear was in green, and that somehow the gear retracted upon touchdown. Gear came down fine after raising aircraft up while on the runway. Gear linkage was not damaged. Gear and hydraulics operated correctly while on jacks in the hangar.
