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 29 June 2026 a Cessna 525 jet rolled into a bag cart after the pilot notified the ground crew to pull chocks before start. The parking brake was not set. The pilot was notified by the passengers that the plane was rolling forward and the pilot attempted to apply brakes but the pressure was not built up in the system. The pilot did not apply the emergency brake. The nose of the aircraft impacted the baggage cart and sustained minor damage to the radome. The pilot and passengers were not injured in any way.
