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.

The PIC was directed by air traffic control (ATC) to land the aircraft on interstate I75 south and the aircraft landed safely without incident. FSDO-19 inspector?s arrived on scene and observed no physical damage to aircraft, an inspection of the cockpit showed that there was fuel in both wing tanks.
