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 10/7/2023 at approximately 4:15 pm CDT the nose landing gear (NLG) tire on a 1979 Cessna model 441 aircraft (twin engine turbo prop) lost inflation during landing rollout at Sublette Municipal Airport (K19S), runway 17. The pilot brought the aircraft to rest on the runway and emergency services were notified shortly after. Two souls were on board with no injuries reported. Damage sustained to the aircraft appeared limited to the NLG tube, tire, and the landing light attachment bracket forward of the NLG strut.
