## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

NARRATIVE: PILOT WAS ON A LOCAL FLIGHT AT QUAKERTOWN MUNICIPAL AIRPORT (UKT). HE CLIMBED TO 9000' - 10,000', DEVELOPED A HEADACHE AND RETURNED TO UKT. BEFORE ENTERING THE PATTERN, HE REACHED TO PUT A CIGARETTE IN THE ASHTRAY, BUT DROPPED IT ON THE FLOOR. AS HE STRETCHED TO RETRIEVE IT, HE FELT A SHARP PAIN IN HIS BACK. THE PLANE WENT SLIGHTLY OUT OF CONTROL. HE RECOVERED, ENTERED THE PATTERN AND MADE ONE ATTEMPT AT LANDING, BUT HAD TO GO AROUND. ON HIS NEXT ATTEMPT, HE LANDED NOSE WHEEL FIRST, AND BOUNCED APPROXIMATELY 20' BACK INTO THE AIR. HE PUT THE AIRPLANE BACK ON THE RUNWAY, THEN WENT OFF IT ON ROLLOUT, DESTROYING A RUNWAY LIGHT. ON TAXI-IN HE TAXIED THE WING OF HIS AIRPLANE OVER THE WING OF AN AIRPLANE BEING REFUELED. THIS PILOT HAS BEEN REEXAMINED UNDER SECTION 609 OF THE FAA ACT. SUBMISSION OF THIS REPORT CLOSES THIS INCIDENT.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft 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. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
