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.

On June 6, 2023, about 1352 eastern daylight time, a Cirrus SR22T, canadian registration, was destroyed when it was involved in an accident near Jamestown, new york.

According to witnesses, the pilot in the left seat privacy data omitted the accident airplane, and also brokered other airplanes. Additionally, the pilot in the left seat was preparing for an instrument rating practical examination, scheduled for the following week. The purpose of the accident trip was a combination of training and to work on exporting another airplane for sale in the U.S. That air-plane was at Chautauqua County/Jamestown Airport (kjhw), Jamestown, new york.

Ac-cording to ADS-B data and witnesses, the accident airplane departed at 1341 and performed one touch-and-go landing on runway 31 uneventfully.
