## Narrative

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

NARRATIVE: MR. DURICKA WAS ON A PLEASURE FLIGHT AND WAS APPROXIMATELY 20 MILES WEST OF GREEN RIVER, UTAH. MR. DURICKA SAID "HE FELT A VERY UNUSUAL MOMENTARY THUD OR VIBRATION WHICH HE THOUGHT WAS A BIRD STRIKE". MR. DURICKA WENT ON TO SAY "I DID NOT KNOW WHAT HAD CAUSED IT SO I DECIDED THE SAFEST THING TO DO WAS MAKE A PRECAUTIONARY LANDING AND CHECK FOR DAMAGE". UPON LANDING, ON AN OLD DIRT RUNWAY, THE LEFT WING LEADING EDGE HIT A BUSH THE AIRCRAFT VEERED TO THE LEFT AND THE PROPELLER HIT A SMALL TREE. THIS IS A FINAL REPORT.
