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.

Pilot in command stated that the approach was normal and upon touchdown to lake hood was harder than he anticipated and bounced off the water.

The 2nd touchdown was harder than the first and the next thing he knew he had ran aground and into another aircraft that was parked in a slip.

He mentioned another aircraft reported wind shear prior to his approach. The wind shear information was not given to him prior to his approach and landing.
