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 statement:

While landing at kruq I felt a shimmy and pull to the right. I used left rudder to counter the pull to the right. As the aircraft slowed down, the rudder naturally lost authority. I used maximum left brake to correct the pull to the right. Eventually the blown right tire produced enough drag to overpower the left rudder and brake. The airplane departed the runway to the right. The aircraft came to a stop in the grass to the right of the runway.

PIC also stated it was a normal landing.
