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.

2022-04-19 ? N2626Z ? Nose wheel fell off during landing ? Kane ? Minor damage, no injuries

Description: the purpose of the flight was to conduct a series of takeoffs and landings at kane. The PIC proceeded to execute a normal landing. While turning onto an inactive runway, before taxiing back for further pattern work, the aircraft?s nose wheel detached and the aircraft came to a complete stop. At some point, the propeller made contact with the runway. The aft portion of the aircraft remained on the active runway. The PIC requested assistance and the aircraft was towed to the ramp at twin cities aviation. Upon examination of the aircraft records, the nose wheel fairing was found to be damaged upon landing on 02-03-2022 at the kbde airport. The aircraft was flown from kbde to kane later that day. The damaged wheel fairing was removed on 02-14-2022 by twin cities aviation at kane. Unable to determine the cause of the wheel departing the aircraft, axle bolt, axle bolt bucket, and axle spacer were not recovered. Airman counseled on items including but not limited to 14 CFR 91.7 no person may operate a civil aircraft unless it is in an airworthy condition.
