## Narrative

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

NARRATIVE: ALLAN ANDERSON, THE PILOT WAS TAXIING FOR T/O. "I APPLIED THE BRAKES TOO HARD OR TOO FAST AND MY AIRPLANE ENDED UP ON ITS' NOSE. LAP BELT AND SHOULDER HARNESS STOPPED ME FROM HITTING INSTRUMENT PANEL. THERE WAS NO PERSONAL INJURY PHYSICALLY, JUST TO MY PRIDE. I REALLY LIKE THIS AIRPLANE, IT IS A SHAME TO ME THAT I DENTED IT UP."

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.
