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.

A flight attendant, privacy data omitted, was injured during taxi on taxiway victor while the aircraft was taxiing to runway 19R. It was early morning and there was low light. While approaching what the captain believed to be a solid yellow line, the captain applied brake pressure to avoid a possible incursion. This caused the flight attendant, who was completing a compliance check and walking forward toward the flight deck, to fall into the flight deck door and galley wall. Because the flight attendant was injured, the airplane returned to the gate and the flight attendant was taken to the hospital. She was evaluated and had bruised ribs and a sprained wrist, but no serious injuries. The flight attendant was released from the hospital. The captain submitted an aviation safety action program (asap) report and the report was accepted by the event review committee (erc).
