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 went around 1st approach due to wind shift, and on second approach he landed slightly right of center line, and as he was rolling out a gust of wind pushed him to the right, he used slight pressure on left rudder, and used a small amount of breaking on left side to try straighten it out. The breaking caused the tire to skid, so he let off the brake. At this point he accepted going off the runway, as he didn't want to damage the aircraft nose gear by applying too much left rudder.
