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.
While the instructor was teaching the private pilot student a power off 180 degree landing, the student made a hard landing which caused the airplane to bounce and porpoise. The propeller subsequently struck the ground, and the aircraft exited the runway. Minor damage was noted to the underbelly skin, lower firewall, and pilot and co-pilot floor panels.
