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.

Turbulence existed during a visual approach to runaway 25, wind 250@24 gust 29, airspeed + - 10 KTS. A gust during the flare caused a right roll and the captain performed a go around. The second approach and landing was uneventful. The post landing inspection revealed an eight-inch scrape mark on the bottom of the right wing tip.
