## Narrative

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

NARRATIVE: ON 06-10-96, A CESSNA 501, N501JE, WHILE ON APPROACH TO SJC, CALIFORNIA, RUNWAY 29, PILOT DID NOT GET A NOSE GEAR DOWN/LOCKED INDICATION. THE PILOT EXECUTED A GO-AROUND AND LANDED WITH NO INCIDENT. NO PILOT DEVIATION AND NO 8020-11 GENERATED. THIS TERMINATES THE INVESTIGATION AND THIS REPORT IS CLOSED.

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.
