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.

Gear indicated "not safe" when extended. Flap and throttle horn indication confirmed gear not safe. Gear unsafe lamp tested ok. Engine was secured prior/at touch down.

Landed and after approximately 1000' rollout the nose gear retracted. During recovery from runway the nose was raised, and the nose gear assembly was vigerously kicked several times into the full extention position. At this time the nose gear actuator locking clasp deployed, locked, and the gear assembly indicated down and locked (single green lamp annunciator).
