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 was enroute from provo, Utah to jerome, Idaho. He contacted twin falls approach and got the weather for jerome. Because of high winds at the jerome airport the pilot decided to land at the Burley airport. An aircraft landing before him reported gusty winds and that he should use runway 24. The approach end of runway 24 and runway 20 begin on the same area of the airport. The pilot thought he was landing on runway 24, but landed on runway 20 with a 90 degree crosswind. His airplane floated down the runway and landed long. He was unable to stop the airplane before going off the end of the runway and through a fence. The airplane hit a set of railroad tracks and flipped over. The pilot was unhurt.
