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 N151PW a Gulfstream G150, serial number 310, landed at Santa Rosa airport, CA on runway 32 and slid off the departure end of the runway into the dirt. The aircraft slid into mud and got stuck. The left hand landing gear door struck a taxi light causing damage to the skin/ leading edge of the landing gear door. Initial report from the pilots is the thrust reversers failed to deploy.

The cockpit voice recorder provided proof the aircraft was high and fast on an unstable approch just seconds prior to landing and could not confirm the thrust reverseres were ever activated prior to attempting to deploy them.
