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.

Student pilot was soloing in the pattern. He came in on approach and landed half way down the runway. He began to brake hard and attempted to exit on the last taxiway. Due to the speed he was carrying, he was unable to make the turn and left the runway. As he left the runway, he pulled the mixture to idle cut off. His nose wheel buckled under the aircraft doing damage to the aircrafts firewall. No injuries.
