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 pilot set up his approach to runway 35 with the power set to 5%, gear down, and flaps set to takeoff. He crossed the threshold of runway 35 indicating 125-130 knots with power at 0% and flaps set to takeoff. Pilot touched down between the first third to mid third of runway, then applied full brakes and beta. Pilot stated the runway was wet and slick. In the last third of runway, pilot relaxed braking and pushed throttle out of beta but stated he was unable to advance the throttle to full power for a go around. Aircraft came to a complete stop beyond the runway overrun.
