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.

Brake effectiveness returned after a small piece of metal, possibly a brake spacer fell out of brake pistons travel path. Brakes were regained and aircraft taxied to ramp. A dent in the aft left hand falp was only noticable damage.
