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 April 21, 2025 at approximately 10:30 am, we were in the pattern at Stockton metro airport

Setting up for landing on 29R. On downwind, flaps set to approach, landing gear was deployed and

Confirmed gear was down (3 in green). Turned base, flaps set to full deflection, confirmed gear

Down (3 in green). Short final - final check for flaps, gear down (3 in green) and stabilized approach

Was established. Landed on 29R before the 1,500' mark and started rollout. Shortly after rollout, the

Nose started to sink and then the nose wheel collapsed. Due to this, the aircraft veered right

Towards the edge of the runway causing the right main gear to fold with the right wing tip resting on

The payment and the aircraft came to a complete stop before the edge of the runway. We turned the

Electrical switches off, fuel selector off and exited the aircraft.
