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.

During a commercial pilot practical test with local DPE, the pilot was conducting an emergency landing as the result of a simulated engine failure. The landing gear was never confirmed down and locked. Upon hearing propeller strike a go-around was initiated. The aircraft landed without further incident.
