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.
Aircraft on low final approach to land on lake martin, AL, encountered a gust of wind from the left that caused the aircraft left wing to climb abruptly and the right wing to dip resulting in the right wing tip to strike the water causing a hard yaw to the right. The water strike caused the right rigging support cables to fail allowing the right wing strut support to collapse.
