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 came in for landing on runway 04 at Fayetteville regional (fay). Because of a gusting crosswind the pilot was flying slightly faster than the normal landing speed. Upon landing he was too aggressive on the brakes which caused a tire to blow and bent the rim.
